Launching in Indiana

Help every swarm find a prepared local beekeeper.

Bella Bees is building a voluntary, privacy-first service-area registry across all 92 Indiana counties. The goal is dependable local coverage with primary and backup responders in each service area—not a public list of private contact details.

A swarm is usually temporary

Keep your distance. Do not spray it or soak it with water.

Indiana DNR recommends contacting a beekeeper. Keep children and pets away, avoid disturbing the cluster, and use emergency services for immediate danger or a severe allergic reaction.

How coverage grows

One statewide keeper network, built service area by service area.

Indiana has 92 counties. Bella Bees is recruiting opt-in beekeepers by county, city, ZIP range, and travel radius. The planning target is a primary and backup responder for each service area, but the right number depends on geography, season, response time, and actual volunteer capacity.

01

Keeper opts in

The beekeeper chooses counties, travel radius, availability, and preferred contact path.

02

Bella Bees reviews

Submissions are checked before they become part of a private routing roster.

03

Coverage is confirmed

No area is called covered until a responder has agreed to the role and expectations in writing.

04

Privacy stays first

Private details are not placed on a public page. A public profile requires separate, explicit permission.
