There was quite a buzz surrounding Morgan Wallen\u2019s concert in Pittsburgh.<\/p>\n

The buzz wasn\u2019t coming from the fans; instead, it was coming from the stage as thousands of bees became the problem. <\/p>\n

Crews were setting up for Wallen\u2019s concert at Acrisure Stadium on June 2 when about 12,000 to 15,000 bees swarmed the scaffolding, WPXI<\/a> reported. <\/p>\n

Fine Family Apiary was called in and took care of the swarm of honeybees. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a pretty good size swarm,\u201d Al Fine told WPXI<\/a>. \u201cI think around 4-5 pounds, which is about 12,000-15,000 bees.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the help of sugar water, lemon grass and spearmint oils, 95% of the bees entered a box to be relocated. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe saved the show,\u201d Fine said. \u201cNo, no, I\u2019m just kidding. No, actually, we saved the bees because if you couldn\u2019t get somebody to take them, someone would have had to opt to kill the bees, and we don\u2019t want to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n
