New Bee
Morning All,
A question re bait hives.
I current have one colony of bees ticking along happily. I’ve got a spare polyhive knocking around.
I’m thinking of placing it as a bait hive.
Questions:
How far away from my current hive should it be?
Am I going to ‘encorage’ My existing colony to swarm by placing a lure in the new bait hive? Hence cause myself problems.
Cheers
Tom
