HI
I got a call yesterday from a landowner who has my bees on their site, they stated that there was a swarm on their garage wall.
So of i went hoping for some bees to find to my horror that they were moving into the garage walls ( they have a wedding on sat)
.
So i tried what ive heard from this forum about smoking the ''nest'' and pushing them out.
So with smoker in hand i smoked like crazy with a hive placed near to where they had settled. hoping it would work.Things went quite and i felt defeated as i had to leave for work.
This morning i drove past to have a look and saw a mass of bees on the entrance of the hive and fanning away, they were moving into my hive woop woop.
Thanks for the idea beek
