Swarms
Only honey bees swarm, so we will only collect honeybees.
How to tell a honey bee from a bumble bee or a wasp (if its not in a swarm!):
* For solitary bees, look at this page. Solitary bees
* For Bumble bees there are lots of resources on the web, try here or here
* For help on wasps, visit North East Derbyshire District Council's wasp page: Pest Control.
Please don't destroy bees unless its is unavoidable, wasps will die off in the autumn.
If you have a swarm and you are in North East Derbyshire, contact the secretary, Robin Bagnall, on 01246 570545.
