So how are you going to use these as swarm traps? Where will the entrance 
hole be? What are you planning to use for lures/attractants?

Good questions! Any suggestions?  Of couse I am considering swarm lures that 
are sold. I also plan on painting them a neutral color(brown) and then 
dipping them in beeswax/slumgum.


I also tried baking soda but clorox seemed a little more effective..I did 
only do a 24 hour or so test..and I think the clorox will evaporate out 
pretty quick
