The swarm collector

It鈥檚 swarming season, when honey bees leave their hive in search of a new home.

But where they pause along the way is anyone鈥檚 guess. It could be a fruit tree鈥� a garden fence鈥� or even the front of your house.

And if that happens, you might need to call a "swarm collector".

麻豆社 Radio Shropshire鈥檚 Kate Tebby has been to meet beekeeper, Glyn Williams. He鈥檚 been keeping bees for more than fifty years and is one of the dedicated swarm collectors with the Shropshire Beekeepers Association.
