§ 29043 Apiary Registration Requirements

Key Takeaways

  • •If you have bees (an apiary), you must tell the county about it.
  • •You fill out a special form to register your bees.
  • •The form also asks if you want to know when people nearby will spray pesticides.
  • •Every county uses the same form so it’s easy for everyone.

Example

You set up some beehives in your backyard to make honey.

You have to fill out a form and give it to your county to let them know you have bees. The form also lets you say, 'Tell me if someone nearby is going to spray chemicals that could hurt my bees.'
