I got to this job on Saturday, honey bees had just moved in to this chimney on Thursday in Loughbrickland. One of the biggest swarms I've come across. They had already started building comb and were starting to store honey. Not a massive task to remove them but quite uncomfortable with the heat. I inserted mesh in the chimney cap in order to make sure they don't come back. Thanks to Cathy and her mum, and also Donna for gallons of juice to keep me going. Incidentally, this was a Housing Executive house and the Housing Executive have said they will reimburse the tenant the cost of removal. Get in touch if you need further information.

This would be a good place to start if anyone is interested in starting beekeeping

Copied from another group.
In 2012 French Beekeepers could not solve the mystery of the blue and green colored honey in their beehives until they discovered that the bees were visiting a local M&M factory

Thankfully most people do the ethical thing and remove the bees for relocation, this is what can happen when bees are poisoned and left to rot.

Bee sting under a microscope. No wonder it hurts 😩😄

Another chimney extraction, this time up in the North West not far from Castledawson. This swarm arrived in May, you can see some of the comb that I am holding up. There were around 4 times that in the whole nest. Great to meet the Shiels family and to be able to help them out.
