Bee Swarm Under Shed
Bees Build Combs in Awkward Places

Bee swarm under shed, is a message I sometimes receive. A shed is a perfect location for a bee colony. There is usually a space under the floor, between the flooring plywood and the ground.

If bees find a way into this space, especially if their entrance in at the rear of the shed, they can continue to thrive for a long period without the shed owner being aware of them.

I removed a colony from the underside of a shed in The Tijuana Estuary Park. If you'd like to view a brief video of how I did it, go to Live Honeybee Removal.

I sometimes suggest that in these situations, the owner just leaves the bees to co-exist. I heard of someone recently who removed a piece of the flooring and replaced it with a piece of plexiglas as an observation window.
