Services

Many of our members offer services - such as swarmcatching and pollination.  You'll find information for those services below.

Swarmcatching
Have you found a swarm of bees on your property and don't know what to do?  You can call your extension agent, or your local law enforcement agency or fire department.  They usually keep a list of persons who will remove swarms.

The easiest thing to do is to use the list below.  The aforementioned agencies are most likely going to refer you to one of these people anyway, so save yourself - not to mention the police and fire departments - some time, and contact someone on this list.
