Hi, I can check this out but I can't go for an hour. If someone else would like to go look, that's fine with me. Thanks!

So, the swarm arrived last week, HOA called pest co., they came out this morning and asked the homeowner to call us.  Part of the swarm dropped on the grounds last week and probably flew to some location nearby, I asked the caller to find out where.  Since he said the HOA lady told him there was another one nearby.

As for this one, it is about 5-7ft up, tennis/base ball size..... please treat it as a rescue...If I have info on the other part of this swarm, I will update the rescuer for this swarm.

include your email & phone when responding

"If you claim a swarm be sure you can leave immediately to get them. Call the person who reported it to let them know you are on your way. If you can’t go right away, someone else is a better choice to get those bees because swarms can move on.

Collecting a swarm is two parts. Get them in the box, then go back after dark to pick it up. Before making a claim, be sure you are available to return"
