Hi Randy,

Are you looking for a contract dealing with swarm removal from trees or
removal from stuctures?

I don't charge for swarm removal from open spaces. I consider it a
community service and use it as an opportunity to educate the public.
After all the bees are worth $$$ to a beekeeper when in the clustered swarm
state. I don't have to spend $$ buying package bees.  Nature has already
packaged them for me.  :)

However, I do charge for removing bees from stuctures - usually from
$50-$100 depending on complexity of the task. I use the bait hive technique
which works very well.   The County Ag dept has put my name me on their
special bee removal list.

Let me know if you get a good looking contract that you can share with
members of this list.

    I am looking for a legal contract that  I can use for swarm removal.  A
local beekeeper uses one and says I should have one too.....I think he wants
to sell it to me...Anyone have any suggestions?
       He charges up to $200.00,so he says,  and guarantees they won't come
back or next  time is free.  Thanks in advance .....Randy
