Why Swarm Science Lures?Swarm Science is a honey bee attractant that will take your honey bee swarm trapping to the next level. Our swarm lure is a combination of the naturally occurring compounds found in the Nasonov pheromone that honey bees release from their Nasonov gland to direct honey bees to the hive, and in this case, to the new home site (your swarm trap) chosen by the colony.Attracting honey bee swarms is not luck—it's science. Yes, swarms can end up moving into random places, making us think they will choose anywhere as their new homesite, but this is not so. These are the very small percentage of swarms we see, while the vast majority of swarms move into new homesites we never see. Thanks to Dr. Thomas Seeley and his extensive study of honey bee swarms, we know how to maximize the number of swarms we are able to capture during swarm season. Last year, in my suburban neighborhood alone, I was able to capture 10 swarms in 3 swarm boxes!4 Steps to YOUR Swarm SuccessPheromones: Using Swarm Science imitates the complex chemistry of the Nasonov pheromone honey bees use to attract swarms to new homesites. In addition to Swarm Science lure, old comb can also be added to your swarm boxes.Placement: Place honey bee swarm traps 10-15 feet off the ground near the trunk of a tree.Swarm Trap Size: Boxes must be 40L in size in order to have the best chance at attracting honey bee swarms (Two 5-frame deep nuc boxes stacked or one 10-frame deep box with an entrance of 1.5-2 square inches).Timing: Swarm traps must be placed in early spring, a few weeks before the first honey be swarm is spotted in your area. Scouts begin looking for new home sites even before the swarm leaves the colony.
