My oh has just rushed of and collected a swarm to prevent it being killed.Its about the size of a rugby ball.
He collected it in a poly-nuc,and has put it in our out-apiery with the small vent open.
I would like eventually to unite with a weak hive,but can`t find the queen in said hive.
Tomorrow I thought we could get a frame feeder and put a couple of pulled out frames in the nuc.
Is this he right thing to do? This is our first swarm.
