The day got crazy with that dispatch to Castro Valley. I show up in Castro Valley. I catch the swarm yay, and then I get a call from my son that there’s a swarm in my front yard balled up on a bush. I caught it as well. Catching swarms is one thing. Getting them to stay is another when you don’t have a frame with brood. Any suggestions?

Splitting hairs!
Archie (Alameda) and
Maruf (Albany)
responded in the same minute. My phone has one ahead, and my laptop has the other ahead.
So I get to flip a coin, or use other logic.
I suspect the travel time from Alameda may be shorter this time of day.

My apologies
(The two of you are also welcome to lobby each other for the opportunity)
