  • In this video I transfer the first swarm capture of 2023 to another box. They're drawing the empty frames very good. I also make an inspection of a recent split made using a double screened bottom board. Took some stings but was totally my fault. Hives are too close together. Should have had on appropriate protective equipment

    Good stuff Johnny. I dont risk it without long sleeves at least. Iv seen beekeepers offset those boxes a little when they spin the boxes to give the foragers a place to return. Not sure what the long term soloution is. Maybe pull them back together at night.

    I think your bug is an earwig but it was a little hard to see it on the camera shot I have them get in mine in NC as you stated they don’t multiply or harm bees just finding a dry place to hang out.

    Never saw the double screen board.

      It is the bottom board on the colony. I didn't have video separating them. Confusing for sure. I didn't explain on video. Thanks for watching and commenting.
