Set out some bait hives at start of season. All fitted suggested descriptions; national + attractant etc. Nothing. One day about a month ago I was cleaning apiary. Not wearing suit or touching anything. Three hives in a line. Outer two in use. Middle empty apart from a couple of frames. Suddenly 'snowstorm' of bees into empty hive. Took no notice of me. They've stayed and expanding.
