7 City of Talent Procedure on Bee Swarms/Extractions (Adopted by Council May 6, 2015) Honey bees naturally swarm and leave the hive box in the spring of the year. As a designated Bee City USA, Talent is committed to saving the lives of these pollinators which are essential to our food supply. Swarms are large collections of bees clustered in preparation of a new home. Bees who have established a colony inside a wall or tree or other structure require an extraction. We have numerous other avenues than killing the bees by spraying them. First of all, please be safe. If you find a swarm or you find a colony that needs extraction, please report it to one of the following: Between the hours of 7:30 and 5:30, if the bees are on a City street or in a park or any open space, call Talent Public Works or Talent City Hall After these hours or on weekends, if it cannot wait until the next business day, Public Works is on call 24/7, 365. Contact and then hit 9 for emergency. Southern 0regon Beekeepers Association also offers great assistance. or call Bee Rescue Team of the College of the Melissae is ready to assist (team ready 24/7 to capture swarms, rescue log hives, and perform complicated extractions.) If someone is seriously injured by a bee sting, such as an allergic reaction that causes breathing difficulties or swelling or other potentially serious health problems that could require immediate emergency medical treatment, call 911. If you are concerned that the presence of a bee hive or swarm presents a threat to public safety, and you are unable to contact bee removal experts, call for public safety personnel to evaluate the incident by calling the non-emergency police/fire/medical non-emergency line at the central emergency dispatch center: If, on the other hand, you are a beekeeper and would like to respond to reports of swarms or colonies needing extraction, you can list yourself with the Southern Oregon Beekeepers Association If you want to be listed contact non-emergency number at For more information, please contact Dolly Warden, coordinator of Together for Talent s Bee City USA program dolly.warden17@gmail.com
