Extracting recently using clearer boards there were the usual few bees still in the supers.
I used the blower unit of a paint sprayer to blow the remaining bees out, it worked really well! The blower has a long hose about 3cm diameter, so easy to direct it between the combs.
This is the one I used but I'm sure others would work too.
