We published a review and description of the techniques we used to find
more than a couple hundred colonies this past several years. That
reference (perhaps the latest out on the subject) is as follows:
1992 Wenner, A.M., J.E. Alcock, and D.E. Meade. Efficient hunting of
feral colonies. BEE SCIENCE. 2:64-70.
Which technique to use depends on the circumstances. I can mail copies
of that paper to those serious about the wonderful science/art of
beelining.
