Are there any significant external influences which may affect the temperament of a colony?
I’ve read that a significant feeding ‘frenzy’ can make them agitated. What about just before swarming, do they become livelier? Perhaps if they were under duress from disease?
I’m sure it would probably depend on the temperament of the colony to begin with, but has anyone any ideas on this.
