The Royal Queens Throne

Sometime there are those that think they are bigger & better than everybody else. In this case ascending a regular Throne is not enough. Some need a Royal Throne with all the pomp and circumstance of a Grand Entry.
Here we used a LARGE Throne with 2 poles to collect a 9 lb swarm from a tree.
Step one - get into contact with the cluster - wait 10-15 minutes
Step 2 Shake the remaining bees
Step 3 Lower the Throne away from the cluster area.
Step 4 -Shake the remaining bees into the air.
Step 5 Let settle
Step 6 Allow to enter or vacuum.
