LAFAYETTE â For many, Spring is the perfect time to be outside, but it s also the perfect time for bees to relocate their hives.
Local beekeepers say there has already been an increase in sights of Honey Bee swarms in yards across Acadiana, which can be worrisome for homeowners, but Keith Guidroz, a Lafayette beekeeper urges the community to not be afraid. You do want to be a little bit cautious, but you don t need to be afraid because they re not aggressive, says Guidroz. It s not like they re these killer bees where they re going to chase you out of your yard, but you do want to call a beekeeper and get someone that can come in and handle them for you.
