Several of our members have been called to collect swarms in the local area. President, John Hartmann, was in the local paper collecting a swarm from a parked car in the Belk Shopping Center. Art and Nancy Howard collected bees from a dairy barn. This link has great pictures of the Howard's adventure. Dairy Barn Bee Removal
Swarms are fun to watch draw out foundation. I recently caught a swarm which we put in a deep hive body. Within 5 days the foundation was almost completely draw. Those girls were ready to work!!
