Thanks for a great video. One of the bee scientists figured out that bees like a certain size cavity. With open space. Also, I only add one old comb with no honey or pollen, it attracts the wrong things, and the rest I use foundation. Swarms are great at drawing comb. Good luck and nice farm.
Thanks for commenting. I realized within a couple days that I made a mistake putting the frames with honey in the traps. I had bees at them within 24 hours. I put out a third trap with more drawn comb and a little honey and that trap had bees within 6 hours. I started thinking that maybe they were robbing the honey and I wasn’t as lucky as I thought lol. I’m going to inspect them all in the next day or two and will make changes based on your recommendation!
