[@TonyGuyParker]

Also which Sarm Lure do you prefer?

[@OkAdventure994]

I have been using Swarm Commander now for many years.

[@TonyGuyParker]

Great KZbin! What diameter Main Bee Entrance hole are you drilling?

[@OkAdventure994]

I use a 3/4" paddle bit

[@TimeIsHoney]

Thanks for the info brother! setup my traps just like you are and they are already showing signs of promise:) thank you again! I drilled a hole in the very bottom and some on the side to see which holes the bees favored more. So far I can tell they really don’t care but ill see in a few weeks here in South Texas.

[@OkAdventure994]

Nicely done. Let me know how they do.

[@TimeIsHoney]

@@OkAdventure994 yes sir I surely will!

[@kezzatries]

@@TimeIsHoney so how did they do?

[@TimeIsHoney]

@@kezzatries no swarms this year due to heavy drought and no resources in Texas.

How do you move the comb into a rectangle beehive. W frames?

[@MLMcCallum]

I out 5 buckets, within two days I had two swarms. Is it better to move traps around. Or leave? around?

[@OkAdventure994]

I have always left them in a area. Then moved them around the next year if no swarms were caught in the area
