  • Branch meeting: All about swarms
    Branch meeting: All about swarms
    Starts: 7:30 pm
    Ends: Wednesday, January 8, 2020 - 9:30 pm
    Location: Whitefriars, 14 Gravel Walk, Canterbury CT1 2TF, UK
    Description:

    We hope to get you thinking about how you will pro-actively manage your bees to ensure that swarming, when it does happen, is under control, rather than a shock!

    Dougal Hendry and Adrian Davis will walk you through the basics of swarm prevention, and swarm control (they are different!) We'll also look at various tricks for collecting swarms, should you be in the fortunate position of being called out to take a swarm (or the unfortunate position of having to retrieve one from your own colonies).

    For the third part on swarm collection, we'd be delighted if other members can share their experiences of successes in taking swarms. If you are able to join us on Wednesday, and would like to share photos or a video, please send them along to me, before the meeting if possible, so that we can have them ready to project.
