Pestilence sorcerer question

So the pestilence bloodline says that vermin are susceptible to mind effects as though they were animals. With that in mind could I in anyway control a swarm from the summon swarm spell and similar spells? if so, how would it work? Would I use a diplomacy check keeping in mind that swarms from summon swarm have a very low or non existent intelligence? Would I use handle animal to "push" them? Do I need the "speak with animals" spell to communicate witH them? The bloodline seems to make this possible even giving you charm animal as yor first bloodline spell. But how would it work exactly?


You still can't charm a swarm because charm spells target a specific number of creatures. You would need Vermin Empathy or be dealing with a swam with a hive mind in order to control a swarm in any way.
