A swarm, when it is born, goes out in search of a hole in a tree or rock, which is about 100 meters from the mother hive, elevated from the ground and which has the right dimensions to grow and the right characteristics to survive. Currently, there are few areas in Spain that offer native spaces so that bees can live in nature, as they did years ago. Big trees with holes, cut down, and when they settle in civilized corners, we move them because they scare us.
