UK - National Swarm Coordinators
The
general public should contact their nearest honeybee swarm coordinator
on the list. You will be asked to supply the exact location of the swarm.
Most beekeepers would make a charge for removal of a swarm from your
garden depending on travelling distances to cover costs of petrol etc
(details of individual charges are beyond the scope of this web page).
This database listing was previously on the kentbee.com website and is
now under the BBKA umbrella.
Disclaimer
The swarm coordinators are acting as individual beekeepers. The
BBKA are not able to guarantee the beekeepers are competent swarm collectors.
Please read the Swarm Help Summary before contacting a beekeeper.
