Swarm Catcher Bee Charm 200ml Spray
Bee Swarm Lure Spray in spray form for catching bee swarms
The exclusive recipe, developed by Thomas Apiculture, is recognised and continues to satisfy its users around the world.
200ml Spray
The perfume obtained on the basis of natural essences attracts and directs the swarms to the place prepared for them.
Spray lightly on a few frames and the front door of your trap hives, repeat the operation every 8 days.
If you have old built combs, put them inside your trap hives. They will further increase the chances of success. The traps should be placed high up, on a stable base, making sure that during the hottest hours, they are sheltered from the sun in order to avoid a rise in the internal temperature.
Our advice: as soon as you have captured a swarm, isolate it in a "quarantine" apiary, making sure that it is in good sanitary condition and treat it against varroa.
Warning : do not place your traps near apiaries that do not belong to you.
I've been nursing a swarm which arrived in May and took up residence in a large bird box. In September the box blew out of the tree. As the bees had built up stores I reattached the box to the tree at lower level and have been feeding them with syrup. I have built a hive and I am hoping to persuade the bees to move into the it in the spring. The hive is currently standing close to the bird box and I have been giving it an occasional spray in the hope the bees may show some interest.
Thank you for your excellent service. I will let you know what happens.
The unintentional bee keeper
Bought it for my dad to try catch honey bee swarms.
I bought this for my dad as he is a honey bee keeper. Lots of his swarm get away. With this I hope he can “catchem all”.
