Had phone call yesterday asking to remove a colony of bees. Went through the usual questions and suspected a colony of bumbles. As the house was near my grand daughters school I agreed to have a look.
As expected a colony of Bombus lapidaries in a bird box in a clump of ivy. Asked if I could remove said colony as her husband carried an epipen.
Is it legal to remove the colony and re =home elsewhere? I will tape up the bird box and refix it to a tree near my home,
