swarm control - another option ?

shutting the bees up to avoid swarming

It's not possible to not be in possession of the smarts to figure it (QR use)
out so all that's left to be said is buggered bees do not money make.
Classic yarns around failed captures and buggered off introduced queens
are the stuff of the weeping poor, eating only sand.

QRs were in our apiary management for nearon a decade and remain today
as the tool for safest outcomes in retirement. Just yesterday a box change
from 6 to 10 frame broodchamber was installed for a startup colony in our
outyard (22kms off) - I slept well last night.
