achoo Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Currently a huge swarm outside my front door and I can't leave. Has anyone else had this problem, or have any advice on what to do? If there is a nest - who is the best person to call as its pretty wild!

ponderwoman Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 I'm sure they have moved off to a suitable home by now, if not, I have an empty hive awaiting and can collect them....
