swarm-list Mailing List: Re: Pleasanton swarm off Bernal

I would use 2 deep 10 box or 3 medium 10 box.  

Making certain boxes stay together without latches is difficult so lots of duct tape.  Hive boxes that latch together like with Apimaye hives or DIY latches on wooden boxes works best.

The swarm you posted is huge and I’m wondering how many 10 frame boxes would you need to collect that swarm?
