Hi,
Today I noticed a queen cell with a larvae in it at the bottom of a frame. Is it too late to do a simple hive split for swarm control? If yes, is there a simple way to stop swarming? I would do Snelgrove II method but I often struggle to spot the Queen, so might have problems when returning her to original location.
Any suggestions gratefully received.
