Report a Swarm
Swarming is a part of bees’ natural reproductive cycle, in which the queen and a good portion of the worker population leave the hive to find a new home. While a honeybee swarm is relatively harmless, it can be a frightening sight to people. Swarms should not be disturbed in any way. It is best to clear the area until the beekeeper arrives to retrieve the swarm.
