Managing Bee Swarms in Urban Areas and Residential Properties

As spring arrives and temperatures rise, bee colonies grow, leading to natural swarming. The National Agri-Food Health and Quality Service (SENASA) advises on how to responsibly handle swarms in urban areas, urging people not to approach or disturb them. Instead, they should reach out to provincial beekeeping administrations or SENASA for help from rescue beekeepers. Beekeepers are also warned about the small hive beetle and are encouraged to take sanitary measures during swarm removal and report any concerns to SENASA.
