I tried to mark a queen the other day with crown of thorns, I had marked one then as going through another hive decided to mark that one as I fond her but I put the crown of thorns over the queen the bees balled all over the crown of thorns and my hand, gentle blow to remove them and they all came back straight away so gave up for another day, is it possible for the pheromones from the first queen was on the crown of thorns.
