After a swarm has been trapped, is there any needed waiting time to close it up and take it to my beeyard? I hear it should be done at night, to ensure all bees made it back.
How long after the capture is the best time to transfer it into their new hive in my beeyard?
Does the number of deeps used for the hive depend on how big the swarm is, or do most of you just transfer into the equivalent of a single deep?
Feed and plug the entrances for an amount of time too, to get them settled in.
Sorry for all the questions, just want to have a plan in mind in and when. Thanks, juzzer
