 There's a small hole in each of those strips
attach a wire about 10  in long with a few twists and the end bent over and
twisted so you don't hurt yourself.  If singles, simply put in place and
fold wire over frames,
with doubles I remove a couple of frames and drop strip in place folding
wire to one side -
do same on other side.  If not possible wire will allow placement deep down
and bend end of wire over top of frame.  When removing, use long needle
nose pliers and pull on wire
worked for me for years since the stuff came on the market, except back
then that hole didn't exist and I drilled my own  but shortly thereafter it
did.
I cut the wires off when strips have expired in hives and reuse them.
voila
