Swarm Trap Activity
Les:
Trap has been up since the end of April. Got some lookie Lous since them but today the visits have increased.
I put a stethoscope on the box and could hear a lot of buzzing. Think I might have some new tenants soon?
I hope!
Bakersdozen:
They are curious. I hope you catch a swarm! Are you using any lemongrass oil or nasanov pheromone or old comb?
Les:
I am using old comb and Swarm Commander lure.🤞. I so want to see a swarm!
Lburou:
I see room for optimism there. :)
Wandering Man:
Good luck!
I had bees check out my swarm trap early last week, and then they were gone within an hour. Two days later, scouts were back. But they, too, left.
Earlier this year I had scout bees check out the box, then disappear, then two days later I had caught a swarm. I don't know if they were the same bees or not.
