Alabama Beekeepers Association

Swarm Collector's list

If you have a honeybee swarm hanging in your yard and would like to get rid if it, we would like to remove it for you.   We will shake the bees into a box and haul them away from your property!     We will take them to our apiary and put them to work pollinating the neighborhood flowers and collecting their sweet nectar and convert it to honey.   It is best to have them removed because they are looking for a home and the walls and or soffit of buildings on your property (like your house) is a suitable home!    Locate your city or county in the below alphabetically arranged list and contact the named beekeeper.
If you have honeybees inside the walls of your home or other structure and would like to have them removed, click here for a list of beekeepers that will do bee removals.
Click here for technical information on honeybee swarms and information you will need to give the beekeeper that you are about to call.
If you are an Alabama Beekeeper and would like your name added to this list click here.    If you are listed, please check your listing for accuracy, if you would like your listing changed or removed, please send an email to the webmaster.
