 Thanks JB for another great trap out on getting the honey bees, with so many of them I have seen no one should have trouble of putting the bees in a good hive, thanks again for the video , you are the man.

Enjoyed your performance JP!  I have a saw like that (H 450 Rancher I think) and it goes through wood like butter with a new chain on it.  Looks like you had a new chain that day.  :)

Great product Riverbee, smells great too!

Jen, I had some drawn comb in this one, heck lil bits of propolis are usually all it takes to entice them

L, I always keep my blade nice & sharp but in actuality a dull handsaw would have gone through this tree like a hot knife through butta :-)

JP, does use of propolis as an attractant work in swarm traps too?  How does propolis compare to lemongrass oil as an attractant?  TIA    :)

If I ever get down that way I will buy you a coffee.. I'll buy you breakfast in fact, and a vanilla shake for Shawee..   Don't get many excuses to go south but I can get creative if I have to.. Already informed wife I'm going to see Wally in the spring.  ;D
