Bee-listers:
 
I was called by a friend today to look at a brand new swarm that moved into
a nice hole in a large oak tree.
 
I can look inside and see it is wall to wall bees. Since it is a new hive,
what are my chances of smoking out the swarm or should I revert to the
wirescreen cone and bait hive technique?
 
Will tackle the project this weekend.
 
Thanks for any help on this one.
