West Virginia Beekeepers
West Virginia Swarm Removal

Here is a list of West Virginia beekeepers who remove swarms and established bee colonies. Not all people will offer the same types of services, be prepared to pay for their work, these are specialized procedures requiring a great deal of skill and experience.

For a beekeeping group or club in West Virginia, go to the Bee Clubs and Associations Page and select West Virginia from the drop-box, or see the West Virginia Bee Club and Association Page.

Try to give the beekeeper as much information as you can about the location of the swarm, the height above the ground, the length of time they have been there and whether there are any special circumstances you think might be relevant.

People are often concerned that bee swarms they see may be Africanized bees, the so called killer bees. When bees swarm it's very difficult to tell since even Africanized bees are usually docile when they are swarming, so be cautious and call an expert.

Many people believe that local honey is beneficial for allergies. While I'm not sure there any clinical proof of this I can see there might some sort of homeopathic effect. Finding true local honey, which incidentally is delicious, can sometimes be difficult but contacting people on this list might be a good place to start if you're looking for pure West Virginia honey. Although West Virginia bees are basically the same as bees in any other states, the honey they make will be determined by the local plants. The flavor of the honey is usually a combination of nectar from many different plants.

Please tell the beekeeper when you call, that you found them on the Bees-on-the-Net.com Swarm List
