Swarms
We at the Stanwood Beekeepers Association are dedicated to helping honeybees. If you have a swarm of honeybees you would like to have removed from your property, we would love to help you if it is possible to capture that swarm. Several of our members have bee vacuums that are able to reach up to about 25 feet above the ground.
We maintain an internal list of members who would like to adopt a swarm.
Please contact either our president, Steve Winchell, at 425-501-9701,
steve.winchell51@gmail.com, or our vice president, Art Peterson, at 425-232-8830, blue608@aol.com or our treasurer, Luke Jackson, at (210) 646-1802
Luke.taylor.jackson@gmail.com to arrange to have someone come to try to capture your swarm.
It would be helpful if you could send a photograph of the swarm either as a text message or an email so that we can determine if it is honeybees and not yellow jackets or bumblebees.
