I read the article about swarm control with more than usual interest because of the description of Demaree. So it basically says that you put the queen and one frame of capped brood in a new box and leave the remainder of the brood in the original box. Then stack the boxes, separating the 2 brood boxes with 2 supers and a QX. If the new box with the queen and one old frame is on the bottom, it must be filled with drawn comb. If the new box with the queen and one old frame is on the top, it can be filled with drawn comb or foundation.
Why the difference please?
