Moss Bluff Apiary is an apiary doing bee rescue near Ocala, listed for Marion County on the statewide Florida Bee Rescuers roster. Because the operation keeps its own bees, the people who answer understand colonies from the inside and approach a rescue with the intent of saving and relocating the bees rather than destroying them. For homeowners around Ocala, Moss Bluff, and the surrounding parts of Marion County, that is exactly the perspective you want when a swarm or colony appears.
Swarm season brings the classic call: a cluster of bees hanging from a branch, a post, or the edge of a building while the colony hunts for a new home. Those clusters are usually the simplest to gather and move. Established colonies that have settled in and begun drawing comb take more work, but the goal of live relocation stays the same at an apiary like this.

Reach Moss Bluff Apiary by phone and describe the bees clearly: where they are, how high, and how long they have been present. That helps them size up the job. As with every beekeeper in this directory, each beekeeper sets their own terms, so confirm the specifics when you call. Relocating a live colony keeps it pollinating instead of lost.
