Does anyone have any experience or recommendations? Thanks.

Royal Mail are only guys that will take live bees. Others are XDP but youd have to get an account etc. Other couriers live insects are not allowed.

Saying that, they post a lot of Packages in the U.S but the way some nucs are treated I'd be concerned posting packages with such exposed mesh that may be peirced. Also if theyre on their side (which some nucs have been this year! The feed systems likely to leak.

Edit - Parcelforce also post live bees but they are brutal with them and then wont pay compensation claims. Hard lesson learnt!

Many thanks.
I think I'll not send them - too risky overall.
