BBKA Chair Anne Rowberry says:

“Bees are livestock and should be tended. You may visit your bees for welfare purposes such as for checking feed or queen cell preparation.

You must take into account social distancing and safe access. Also swarming, please do not go into houses, roofs etc, or go through houses to reach swarms.

We are working with DEFRA. NBU inspectors will still inspect if you have disease concerns.”
