| 1. Author: DBP Date: Fri 29th May 2026. 17:15 Hi all, We’ve just had our vanity walls insulated and before we git the house re rendered (cracks everywhere) bumble bees have moved in. There’s not many but I’m worried they’ll be removing the insulation we have just had installed. I know experts can come and relocate them - so does anyone have any recommendations who I could use?

| 7. Author: veteraneastender Date: Mon 1st Jun 2026. 09:13 There will likely be some bee keepers locally - worth asking local Council for contacts - they could remove the hive and relocate. We had a swarm many years ago, the retired school jannie was a bee keeper, smoked them into submission and took them away to start a new hive. Reply |
