Caller reports the bees arrived in a swarm on Saturday and are still hanging around. Pineapple-sized in a tree only about 3 ft off the ground. She sent a terrible picture that doesn't really show anything but it sounds like they'd be very easy to collect.

Who would like to leave now to collect the swarm and return after dark to ensure no bee left behind?

If you collected a swarm in the last 24 hours, please hold off 5 minutes before making a claim.

Safety first! No swarm is worth risking injury to self, or host.
