More empty honeybee catch boxes please

We have a number of apiary sites and a major one is in Mpumalanga province, South Africa. The farmer we work with there called today to say we need to bring more empty honeybee catch boxes as the 10 empty ones we took up end of August 2010 are now full of bee colonies!

Our beehives are specially coated with bee attractant. We place our beehives in strategic places on the apiary site to ensure the best opportunity to attract a trekking honeybee swarm.

We are building our total apiary under management to 1000 bee hives within 3 years! The challenge is on. We now have 27 in total with this little beekeeping project so far.

Beekeeping is great! In other beekeeping projects we have over 6 years of experience and run beekeeping courses as well.
