I had a Bee Keeper come around the house a few years ago when we had this before and take them away for free (I think a swarm is worth a few quid?).
Just wondering if anyone knows somebody who could do this before I go to google as I don't have the last guys number
TIA

If only we knew a good topical joke to go with this thread.
He has not been on for ages, I think I have his email address from when he sent me something ages ago, will pm it to you.
Thought that would come up and I'd have had money on you!
Thank you Mrs R
Plan Bee then.
Just cover yourself in jam and run up the road. That should do it. It worked for the Pied Piper.Thought that would come up and I'd have had money on you!

Let's hope the jam doesn't make him come out in hives.Just cover yourself in jam and run up the road. That should do it. It worked for the Pied Piper.
I'll give it a go. Wish me luck
Eric the half a bee.
He might be able to help but make sure you don't get stung by his bill.
Are you getting him mixed up with Eric the half a duck?
There is a guy that lives in one of those 3 old stone cottages on the road that goes pary Cardiff High OB Rugby Club. Middle cottage. If you go there he normally has about 6 or so hives in his garden.
He drinks in the pubs in llandaff north, and ,oddly, goes by the name of "Phil the Bee". He is nice approachable fella and will help you if he can.
If you really need to contact him call CJ Hill, a local sub contractor on Bridge Road and ask to speak to Clive. He'll know where Phil is.

Is it still there this morning ?
I had a swarm land on the side of my house they follow a new queen and are looking for a new home. If they find that the place is n`t suitable they will move on.
Yeah I spoke to somebody last night via a Facebook group and she said the same that they won't stay on a bush for long and will probably go as soon as they found a permanent home.
Still there this morning though. Pretty impressive how they all positioned themselves to keep the inside of the swarm dry in the rain last night
You are such an empty vessel.
Hiya,
I'm a beekeeper but not much use to you cos I'm in Dublin.
Have a look here http://www.cardiffbeekeepers.co.uk/swarms.php (or for anyone outside Cardiff, look here http://www.wbka.com/associations/ for a local contact).
Most beekeepers will be glad to take & hive a swarm, unless it's in a really inaccessible place.
Na, they'd be swarming all over it.
On a positive note, I thought the council had a resident bee keeper.
