Connecting communities to protect honey bees
Local honey bee swarm relocation
Report the Swarm
You’ve noticed a swarm of honey bees in a tree, on your house, or in your yard. While not dangerous, they need a good home.
Answer some quick questions to report the swarm so that a beekeeper can come pick them up.
Connect with a Beekeeper
Local beekeepers will be notified of the swarm, and you’ll get a prompt response from someone who can come by to take care of the bees.
Swarmed is free, and beekeepers typically won't charge you unless the swarm is in a hard to reach spot, or the bees turn out to be an established colony.
Save the Bees
Watch from a safe distance as a beekeeper carefully places the bees in a box before moving them away to their new home.
Without a beekeeper, only 1 in 4 swarms are likely to survive.
For Beekeepers
Save time and resources by responding to the most up-to-date information about honey bee swarms in your area.

Spotting a Swarm
Swarms are nature’s way of creating new honey bee colonies
Swarms are not dangerous, but encountering one can be an unexpected surprise. If you come across a swarm, it's important to stay calm and contact a local beekeeper right away.
By reporting the swarm to us, you make sure that a beekeeper, not an exterminator, can safely re-home the bees.
Dealing With Bee Swarms, Made Simple
Swarmed connects you to the nearest beekeeper who is able to quickly pick up your swarm.
Beekeepers won't charge you for their services unless the swarm is in a particularly hard to reach spot, or the bees turn out to be an established colony.
