Why did I get bees, What's going on?
If you’re reading this you most likely have bees or scout bees on your property. This is caused when a beehive gets to large and the workers can’t communicate as easily with the queen. Some of the bees will begin building a handful of queen cells on the honeycomb. When the queen lays the larvae inside the cells, the worker bees will feed these larvae a special protein rich diet termed ‘royal jelly’. Once a new baby queen emerges, this queen will kill the other unborn queens, or if two queens emerge at the same time they’ll fight to the death.
The hive splits. It is my understanding that at this point that the older queen from the established hive, leaves the newly born queen taking half the bees with her. This is called a swarm; a beehive in transition of moving to a new home. In this state the bees carry honey with them and are not aggressive as they have no home to protect. Typically the swarm will rest on a bush or a tree for a few days as they search for what they feel is a suitable home. When travelling as a swarm, -the bees will move in a circular swarming motion towards their destination. It is not common to see this phenomenon of bees in migration, though it does happen more in the spring. It may also happen in the fall if the hive feels it does not have enough honey to support all the bees; however the swarm is less likely to survive than a swarm in spring.
Bees scouting for a new home. In either case, before bees choose a destination they send out scout parties to different locations looking for a suitable home. A party of scout bees is typically 5 to 75 bees. If the bees like the location, more bees will come to scout. Often this is happening without the knowledge of homeowners or managment.
