Bees
If Bees Are In The Area

Stay indoors

Close all windows and doors

Do not attempt to move bees (don't throw objects at the swarm or squirt with water)

Typically swarms are transient - they may set up temporary shelter in a tree for a few hours or even days before moving on

Swarms that are close to daycare centers, schools, or densely populated areas (large apartment complexes or trailer parks) may need to be removed if they do not leave the area in a reasonable amount of time or are showing aggressive behavior. Please see the 'Who To Contact' directory below.

If the beekeeper or exterminator is contacted for bees on a private residence, common area maintained by a home owner's association, or business, the owner and/or occupant assumes financial responsibility for said services.

The Buckeye Fire Department will not eradicte bee swarms unless special circumstances are present (i.e.: agressive, attacking bees that cannot be isolated from the public by reasonable means). Please do not use 9-1-1 for a non-emergency bee situation.
