DISCLAIMER: TRANSPORTING A BEE NUCLEUS COLONY
Transporting a bee nucleus colony (nuc) involves inherent risks and requires careful planning and appropriate safety measures. Big Country Bee Company is committed to providing quality bees and equipment; however, we cannot guarantee your safety during transport. It is the customer's sole responsibility to ensure the safe and secure transportation of their bee nuc to its destination.
Potential Risks:
-
Bees may escape from the nuc box during transit.
-
Escaped bees can sting occupants, potentially causing allergic reactions, injury, or accidents.
-
Improper handling may result in hive disturbance and aggressive bee behavior.
-
Overheating inside a vehicle can endanger the bees and increase agitation.
Safety Recommendations:
-
Always transport the nuc in a well-ventilated area of the vehicle, preferably in the trunk or truck bed, secured to prevent movement.
-
Ensure the nuc is fully sealed and closed before placing it in your vehicle.
-
Avoid transporting bees inside a confined passenger space if possible.
-
If transporting in the vehicle cabin, ensure windows are closed, and protective gear (e.g., veil, gloves) is readily available.
-
Drive with caution and avoid sudden movements or harsh braking.
-
Plan for a direct route home, minimizing stops and exposure to heat.
Customer Responsibility: By purchasing a bee nucleus colony, the customer acknowledges the risks involved in transport and agrees that Big Country Bee Company is not liable for any injuries, accidents, property damage, or bee losses that occur during transit. The customer assumes full responsibility for implementing adequate safety measures and securing the nuc during transport.
If you have any questions or need guidance on transporting your nuc safely, please contact us before your scheduled pickup.
Thank you for your cooperation and commitment to safe beekeeping practices.
