swarm-list Mailing List: Re: San Ramon External Hive at eave 8 ft up

[Pamela Weimer (pamela.weimer]

I take your various points regarding swarms vs extractions.  I will call the homeowner back and explain that we are thinking it really is an extraction so a few will be involved.  There are a number if you who are interested but it looks like Nick is beeless.  He was not the first to come forward so I am giving out the information based on policy around extractions and anyone can reach out to her to go see what’s up and make a bid.

And the bees are likely to be more defensive.

I agree with the fee thing. Swarms are clusters hanging or on the ground

 Open air hives are more work and time and equipment.  I also feel irrigation boxes, compost bins and inside garbage cans are extractions.  If they've moved in it's an extraction. My 2 pennys
