Last month the Guernsey Beekeeper Association moved their apiary to the GSPCA.

The move took place on the 11th February 2018 when the majority of the bee colonies were moved from the old apiary in St Peters to the GSPCA site.

Once the bees were safely re-homed Damian Harris gave a talk at the GSPCA training room.

Amongst the topics covered was the the Asian Hornet strategy and Asian Hornet traps and sachets of attractant plus fondant were also available for purchase.

Damian Harris introduced a programme for the Bee Keeping Year and hand-outs were available. The move went well and a few images of the event are shown here - http://www.gbka.org.gg/section694559.html

Steve Byrne GSPCA manager said "It was lovely to welcome the apiary from the Guernsey Beekeeper Association last month at the GSPCA."

"Around the site at the GSPCA we have been striving to help wildlife and we are all very excited to welcome the Guernsey Beekeeper Association apiary on site to help the Guernsey environment."
