When You Call the Beekeeper, the following information is useful to have available:
- Your name, address and return phone number for the day you are calling.
- When did the swarm arrive, and where it is located on your property. (We can only go on to property with the permission of the owner)
- How big is the swarm? Softball? Football? Basketball? Larger?
- How high is the swarm, and do you have a ladder available if needed?
- Is it possible to clip or prune the plant where the swarm is located?
If the first person you call on the list below does not respond RIGHT AWAY, please DO keep calling other beekeepers on this list until you get someone to commit to coming out to retrieve your swarm that day or the next.
Please note: The individuals listed below will be contracting with you directly for the removal of the swarm or colony. ACBA does not endorse, sponsor, guarantee or assume any liability for any work they may do, and it is ACBA policy to allow the individual to determine whether or not to charge for their service and if so, at what rate.
To contact Stan Umlauft at A&B Swarm Removal concerning pest control information and work, please call him at 1-800-500-4747, email him at
