Honeybee Rescue: A Backyard Drama

Loree Griffin Burns

When a bee colony settles in a drafty garage, its owner calls a bee relocation specialist for help before winter arrives. The specialist uses a purpose-built vacuum device to transfer about 35,000 bees from the rafters while the owner moves the honeycomb into frames. The bees are placed in new hive boxes, then gradually moved to a garden beside their original hive. Explanations of swarming, hive structure, and the bee-vac accompany the account.
