I know of a hive of bees located under an old abandoned farm house. What do you think the odds are that I could set up a hive body with frames and foundation right next to the entrance and coax a swarm of bees to leave their established hive and set up residence in my box?

I doubt it but if you have the extra equipment and the time, I say go for it.

Maybee a trapout.

If there was just one exit and entrance hole, I would screen the entrance and connect it right into your box...They would have no choice to fly into your box! Good luck!!
