Swarm removal list:   If you have found a honey bee swarm, you can use this list to locate a beekeeper near you who may be able to come and collect it.*

NOTE:   County and City provided on the list below indicate the primary location of the individual listed.   Some of these individuals are willing to travel to nearby counties to retrieve swarms, so if you can not find someone in your county, you may find help in neighboring counties.  The link below may help you identify which counties are closest to you.
