Bee, Wasp and Hornet Removal
********************************
As Bee Keepers and registered members of the BBKA and SwarmUK our priority is the safety and welfare of all bees.
Most bees have a very short lifespan and can exist alongside ourselves with very little disturbance.
They are an essential and beautiful part of our ecosystem and need to be preserved and protected.
When we are called out to an instance we will always give the customer a number of options.
In most cases we suggest leaving the nest in situ if they are not causing distress or distruction.
However if you have a nest/swarm that is causing distress, then we can help.
We will only remove if a customer insists and we will deal with the situation with as little distress to the bees as possible.

Learn to love the bees 🐝.

PS. We also remove wasps and hornets 😉

Liquid gold....😋

A call has been put out for the public to keep watch and report any sightings of Asian hornets this summer.
The UK’s Chief Plant Health Officer Professor Nicola Spence has urged UK beekeepers and the public to be increasingly vigilant to the presence of Asian hornet and report any sightings as we move into the peak summer season.
The Asian hornet is smaller than our native hornet and poses no greater risk to human health than our native wasps and hornets. However, they do pose a risk to honey bees and insect pollinators.

Asian hornets are distinctive and can be identified by their very dark body, wide orange stripe on the fourth abdomen section and yellow leg ends. Any sightings can be made via the Asian Hornet Watch App.

The warning comes after 2023 saw a record number of Asian hornets found in the UK. The Animal and Plant Health Agency’s National Bee Unit attended every credible sighting, locating and destroying 72 nests in 56 locations. The National Bee Unit continues to stand ready to respond quickly and effectively to any further possible sightings.

The National Bee Unit continues to take action to eradicate the Asian hornet in the UK, and this spring rolled out trapping in areas where there was an increased risk that Asian hornet queens may have overwintered. The traps, which have the means to allow non-target invertebrates to escape, have so far been set at locations across Kent, East Sussex, Devon and North Yorkshire.

SAVE THE BEES 🐝

🚨Bees are disappearing at an alarming rate! Without them, our food system will be in serious trouble. Sign the petition to protect them while we still can:

Save bees from deadly pesticides We can’t allow pesticides to destroy our environment and kill any more bees.

Thank you so much young lady, they are absolutely amazing.

URGENT: An application to use a banned bee-killing pesticide has been submitted AGAIN for the fourth year. Please sign our petition ban the pesticide before it's too late:

There was a time when almost every rural British family who kept bees followed a strange tradition.

Whenever there was a death in the family, someone had to go out to the hives and tell the bees of the terrible loss that had befallen the family.

Failing to do so often resulted in further losses such as the bees leaving the hive, or not producing enough honey or even dying.

Traditionally, the bees were kept abreast of not only deaths but all important family matters including births, marriages, and long absence due to journeys. If the bees were not told, all sorts of calamities were thought to happen. This peculiar custom is known as “telling the bees”.

The practice of telling the bees may have its origins in Celtic mythology that held that bees were the link between our world and the spirit world. So if you had any message that you wished to pass to someone who was dead, all you had to do was tell the bees and they would pass along the message.

The typical way to tell the bees was for the head of the household, or “goodwife of the house” to go out to the hives, knock gently to get the attention of the bees, and then softly murmur in a doleful tune the solemn news.

Little rhymes developed over the centuries specific to a particular region. In Nottinghamshire, the wife of the dead was heard singing quietly in front of the hive,

“The master's dead, but don't you go; Your mistress will be a good mistress to you.”

In Germany, a similar couplet was heard,

“Little bee, our lord is dead; Leave me not in my distress”.

But the relationship between bees and humans goes beyond superstition. It’s a fact, that bees help humans survive. 70 of the top 100 crop species that feed 90% of the human population rely on bees for pollination.

Without them, these plants would cease to exist and with it all animals that eat those plants. This can have a cascading effect that would ripple catastrophically up the food chain.

Losing a beehive is much worse than losing a supply of honey. The consequences are life threatening.

The act of telling the bees emphasizes this deep connection humans share with the insect.
