Hi to all!

I would like to add to what Josh said about laying workers, or a queen that
has gone drone layer. I have always done exactly what Josh explained but I
also swap places with a strong hive in the yard. If there is any
possibility of the laying worker flying back into the old hive it is
eliminated. The queen and her workers will not allow the laying worker to
enter and start laying. I have had good results with this process.
