Swarm Calls
The swarm call map lists all Beekeepers who have volunteered to attempt to collect swarms of honey bees (they are wild critters, after all). Please be courteous when you contact them. Many work full time jobs and they will return your call as quickly as possible. Start by calling a volunteer in your location from the map below. Please be prepared to answer the following questions:
1. Are they honey bees?
2. Where is the swarm located?
3. How high off the ground is it?
4. How long has it been there?
5. How big is it? Basketball size?
6. Have you called anyone else?
