Swarm Commander 1oz Gel

This is the first swarm lure I've used and it's worked very well! It's all Chance in the end that the swarm moves into that location but I've had the same bottle for a year now and even a year later it still works flawless.

So I ordered 2 packages of bees with 2 beehives and the behives arrived and the bees will be here in a few weeks so I figured I would bait these for fun since they were empty. Last night when I got home from work and saw my swarm commander had come in. I put 4 drops on a qtip threw 1 qtip it in each hive and went to bed... This morning I had scout bees checking out both hives. Let's see what happens but even If I don't catch a swarm I feel this product already did it's job. Oh yes and I accidentally spilled a bunch on the floor so I picked up what I could and wiped it on pallet outside of hive. This might have helped.

This stuff works. I’m batting 100% for getting 2 or more swarms a year. With the current price of bees, this is a bargain!

Tried it with four box didn't caught any wondering what I did wrong or the spray is better. They are all new boxes no old frame and this my first time trying my hand at bees. I wonder it could too late in the season but we see.

I trust that the gel attracts scouts but it might not have the same effectiveness that the liquid has. None of my bees follow me around when I use it etc. I believe the gel does work. Next time I will purchase the liquid.

I have caught many wild swarms in the past. But last year I was unsuccessful last year, hoping this will help.

Three drops of this stuff in a box got the bees checking it out in 24 hrs! Still waiting for bees to make the box a home.

Bees swarmed around it but no bees. Had bee's in this area years ago. New bee boxes with wax.
