After leaving their original hive they find somewhere handy to hang in a cluster while scout bees decide on the location their new home. Most swarms occur on warm bright days anytime from April to September although May, June and July are the more common, swarms tend to occur between 11am – 4pm. A swarmed colony can be found outside at anytime of day if a suitable new hive has not been found. If you do come across some bee in the early morning or late evening, this could mean the cluster has been out all night/day and be cold and tired. Quite often there's a peak to swarms on a warm sunny day following a period poor weather, and usually when temperatures are approaching the higher teens.
A full honey bee swarm can be really dramatic involving many 1000's of bees in a huge noisy cloud, However, they generally settle into a cluster within a few minutes.
If you are lucky enough to come across a swarm please be careful and call
ATHERTON HONEY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
The longer swarms are in the open the more vulnerable they are, they will only have limited stores of honey to feed the group, so time is against them, as is any sudden change in weather conditions.
Most honey bee swarms are not generally aggressive but please stay away and leave them well alone, keep children and pets away also. Please don’t spray the swarm with chemicals or other products, not even water.
Atherton Honey & Bees are here to assist you with swarms in outdoor settings non-permanent structures like sheds. Our team is dedicated to safely managing bee swarms, ensuring both your safety and the well-being of the bees. Trust us to handle the situation with care and expertise. If you encounter any swarm issues, don hesitate to reach out!
I'm afraid we can not help with bee rescues from permanent structures or when the bees are with in the fabric of the building, for this you would need a suitably insured bee removal specialist.
When you call we'll need some or all of the following information
​
Describe what you have seen and ideally send us a picture.
How big is cluster/how many (e.g. watermelon size etc.)?
Honey bees swarm in the thousands not a hundred or a dozen.
Location/access (indoors, outdoors, shed, garden etc)?
Height (e.g. 1st floor, roof top)?
How long have they been there? Or what was time you first saw them?
Address and any parking including postcode if possible?
A contact telephone number?
Please call us back if the swarm leaves before we arrive or if someone else collects it to save us an un-necessary journey. Also by not call multiple beekeepers will stop wasted journeys.
