    We discovered a swarm in our compost bin this week, they’ve already built up a nice chunk of honeycomb, we are looking to give them to a good home. We are located on Sunset Blvd and Anita. Please contact me at amersrice@gmail.com if you would like the swarm.

    Hi, Amy—just to get the picture straight—this is a established colony, NOT a swarm. It can be relocated by someone with the correct skills and time. Watch out for so-called “bee savers” that trash the structure the bees have built and only take away the living bees—this kills all the brood (babies) and dumps the honey.
