Is there any evidence to indicate that bees scout for a new site prior to
swarming or is the scouting all done from the swarm when it is clustered on
the tree branch.
Today I had one get by me and I set out a bait hive with old comb and a
pheremone capsule.
Also do the bees show a preference for cedar trees as I find may swarms here
in CT to be in the top 1/4 of cedar trees.
