Hello, I think it’s important to rescue and relocate honey bees properly. It takes a concerned beekeeper, NOT a Large company, to remove the hive and not vacuum or trash the hive in a cardboard box. It takes a little time and some experience to isolate and remove the hive by hand. If you have lots of honey with the comb, I do not recommend saving the honey with the brood. Cut most of this out and attach the brood comb to a frame. Rubber bands work well for this. If you leave a bunch of honey in your brood box it tends to attract ants and other foraging bees or robbing. Try to remove dead bees and other debris out of your bee box to give them a head start. With a rescue, you will need the brood comb for the next generation to start things off right. Most wild bees tend to abscond or take off if the following conditions are not met. Too damp or shaded. Especially in winter. Not enough water. Not enough food-Nector or Pollen. Too many hives in the apiary. The upside is having the satisfaction of saving bees from the exterminator and helping the homeowner save a little cash. Also keeping insecticides and poisons out of our environment.
