A bee swarm can be an unexpected sight, but it’s usually a sign of healthy bees looking for a new home.
At Bluey Creek, we offer calm, respectful swarm collection for honeybee swarms in the Gold Coast hinterland and surrounding areas. As small-scale beekeepers, we collect swarms carefully and relocate them to managed hives, giving the bees the best possible chance to settle and thrive.
Swarm collection is carried out slowly and thoughtfully, with the safety of both people and bees as our priority. Where possible, we aim to preserve the entire swarm, including the queen, and rehome the bees rather than destroy them.
If you’ve discovered a swarm on your property and are unsure what to do, we’re happy to talk through the situation and advise whether collection is appropriate and how we can help.
Pricing: Swarm collection is offered on a case-by-case basis. Final pricing may vary depending on location, access and timing. Please contact us to arrange a quote.
