Anyone ever had a bees relocated from their garden by a beekeeper?

They are all in a bird box and won't let me clear any of the ivy near them without bombarding me in anger!

Ive been chased round the garden all afternoon

I was going to say this seems an apt post

Our neighbour got advised not to move it until they are not so active

no idea why you want to move them. Leave them in peace and they wont trouble you. Then they will move on. If there were no bees none of us would be here. we couldnt survive without them. They on the other hand would flourish.

We kept honey bees which were great for our garden around 5000

Had the odd sting though

But if they are bumble they don't sting and if your happy leave them to buzz about pollinating and making your garden pretty

They only last a season and then queen will hibernate

Usually no more than 60 bees so a small colony

Optimus Prime is probably hiding in the garden somewhere too.
