Hi Just a quick question about bees in a house wall, is it possible to get them out with out killing them?

Have you got bees in great hardwood because I have found a swarm

Yeah there was eggs I knock off the other QC and left the 2

No the cells wasn't sealed yet and the weather been bad all week till today which it was sunny but a cold northern wind

I went to do a AS today as I spotted queen cells 6 days ago with royal jelly so my bee mentor told me to do a AS today so looking in the brood box on each frame the was no queen is there a way of finding my queen easier. she is it not marked :-/

I have just done my weekly inspection and found the start of queen cells just want to know the time scale till they swarm so I can be ready to do AS

Just got in to bee keeping got a hive with black bees last week.

Sorry for the confusion was trying to ask the best method of swarm control and easiest to follow for a beginner

Just need all your ideas on swarming and the best

Just been into my hives this morning and on top of my queen excluder I found this little thing I'm sorry the picture is not uploading
