What's in the bottle hanging on the fence Schawee? How did you get them off the fence? Did you shake the fence or did they just walk in? Sry for the 21 questions, but I have heard people say that bees will land on fence post a lot and just curious on what is the best way to get them moving...
B,
I'll give it a try and Schawee can correct me if I'm wrong... :)
I'm going to say that's sugar water in the bottle, you can spray a little on the frames and/or foundation in the Nuc as an enticement, or a little directly on the bees. Although, I've also seen people use a little soapy water in a bottle to spray on whatever the bees may have been on to discourage their returning and lighting on it. If you use both...Don't get your bottles confused! :)
As to getting them off the post....I would have vacuumed those little suckers up! Although, I may have had a problem finding a receptacle close by. :?
Schawee on the other hand, being a pro...I'm thinking he found and caged the queen, put her in the box, and let the rest of the little ladies figure it out and march on in. :-D
