swarm-list Mailing List: Re: Small swarm in tree in Dublin

[Robin Chatham (angel2020connect]

Olive trees often have bunched up trunks coming from the ground with hollow space at base and below ground level. They used the term swarm but it's probably not. Its a colony living in the tree as its hive/home. Its a trap out or extraction. Very difficult to accomplish and requires digging into the tree.

I forwarded the situation to some other needs above. 

I’m not going to the dye so don’t know who is. 

Suggest replying to the above. Thanks

I could get this, if it is not an extraction or crazy high up.

Hello, your message reached the group. Any chance you could include some more information? Perhaps a photo showing how high it is off the ground as well as a little more detail about what "for some time"

means? That would all likely make a difference as to whether or not someone may be able to come and get it.

Hi,

I am a member of the Alameda group and receive the swarm emails.

I've been contacted by a friend that has a swarm that looks like it has been there for some time, located in Dublin.

I can't respond due to my schedule. How do I get him into the swarm response system?

Thanks

Carter
