A truck bed + a 8ft step ladder + a 8 ft extendable painting pole + a 10ft section of pvc pipe and a bucket.
I got em though, I did a couple of test runs before going live but I didn't compensate for the weight of the swarm :-) I missed the box but they walked right in.

LOL.....I can relate to that one. The last swarm I retrieved with my pole bucket nearly broke the pole. It was so top heavy I could barely control it.

Aaaaaaah! Timberrrrrr! But gosh darn it, that was a real good try. Somehow we gotta come up with a better pole. One that is light weight, and maybe a bigger bucket.
How about taping three pvc pipes together?
