Thanks to Custom Molded Products in Wilmington, Ohio who hung out with me all morning finding that “perfect” combination of wood and plastic for the retail traps.

Shipping is just around the corner!

Interesting story, I was using what we called a “swarm box” to rear queens (basically we shook about 3 lbs. of nurse bees into a screened box with food and very young larvae, which tricks the bees to turn those larvae into new queens). After the queen cells were made, I opened the box to let the nurse bees go. Usually they just return to the hive they came from. But for some reason this time they all went to the swarm trap that was tied on the fence behind the building. It wasn’t exactly a natural swarm, but apparently the trap was attractive to bees! We put a queen inside the box and the bees all went in and became a functioning hive.

My wife and I were able to hang two traps on our property this year and by late spring we had a swarm settle in each. Not being a beekeeper, I found it fascinating to watch the bees go about their daily routine.

With swarms occasionally checking out, and once settling under, my building’s siding it’s nice to direct the bees towards a safer alternative. Now I notice scouts coming and going from the refuBees Swarm Trap, and not threatening our homeowner’s association with another thousand dollar renovation, or worse exterminator, bill to its exterior.
