Hello Bob
Your post somehow ended up in the Junk folder! Just found it.
Years ago I used to help a lady who wore very expensive perfume. Her bees were always dreadful. Then I went to inspect them when she was on holiday - no problems!
I find that colony temper usually changes very quickly when the queen is changed - sometimes it is almost instant - so I am hoping that is what will happen in this case. If not then we will have to move them away for a few weeks.
Best wishes
