<p>A pair of men who stumbled across a swarm of bees on a Perth road on October 10 attempted to protect the insects by herding them into the safety of a cardboard box until they were relocated by council workers.</p><p>Ian Ferry was leaving his office in Malaga, Western Australia, when he drove through a massive swarm of bees and watched them settle into a puddle in the middle of the road. He decided to park his car to block oncoming traffic before calling the local council to relocate them.</p><p>“After all, if all the bees die, we die,” Ferry wrote in a Facebook post</a>. “If I left they would have been run over. So, came up with an idea with another bloke who stopped, to try move them off the road in a box.”</p><p>The video shows the swarm slowly crawling out of the sun and off the pavement into the shade of a cardboard box. ABC Australia</a> reported they were taken to a local hive and were doing well.</p><p>“Call me crazy, could have died… but job done,” Ferry said. “Not one sting either, if it went pear-shaped could have ended up like the movie My Girl.” Credit: Ian Ferry via Storyful</p><br />
