“Bee swarm rescued outside Petworth library” over the weekend – Props to the DC Beekeepers Alliance


4200 Kansas Ave, NW at Georgia and Upshur

Thanks to Arthur for sending us on Saturday: “If you see a swarm, google DC Swarm Squad and they will send a DC bee keeper who will give them a forever home.”

“Swarms look like this. And they can land on lots of things. When you say “swarm,’ this is what we hope you are seeing!

As nerdy as it may seem, “swarm” means something different to a beekeeper than it does to a normal person, but we are still here to help you out. Please email [email protected], call (202)255-4318 if you have a swarm like this, and we will try to collect it.

For non-beekeepers, “swarm” means “a lot of bugs.” But to us, it means a specific behavior by a specific critter at a specific time.”
