Swarm Removal Contact Information


Got bees?

For Swarm/Honeybee info in Lackawanna County:

Renee Zeb (570) 335-3091


Ilona Thurston (570) 498-7310

We can get you in touch with local beekeepers in the area. These beekeepers are volunteers, if they are unable to come
or the swarm is up very high in a tree or on a chimney, etc. - leave the bees alone,
PLEASE do not spray them!!
They are not out to sting you- they have nothing to defend.
In 1-5 days they will find their new home and disperse.

LBB Meeting June 2014

The Lackawanna Backyard Beekeepers will meet on Thursday, June 19th, 6:30pm, at the Abington Community Library.  We will open with roundtable discussion and then show a Brushy Mountain training video titled "Requeening and Colony Division." We have a number of beeks now scrambling for queens. A lot of breeders are sold out now, so it's hit and miss on acquiring one the easy way, but we will strive to have some supplier info on hand as well.
