What To Buy

I agree,
But construction/delivery cycles and swarm arrival/collection dont always match. So someimes ASAP gets close to a fortnight

Like a boy scout - Be prepared!

a cardboard box works fine, mine has a bit of duck tape for reinforcing joints and a bit of OMF mesh as ventilation, sadly it's a bit worst for wear after last summer so intend making a swarm travel box for next season. It is easier to move frames of bees than loose bees into a hive.
