Long story short , my really unpleasant neighbour gave me a New Year demand to move my 2 hives elsewhere as he’d just been stung and was “highly allergic”. We moved them last night to our friends property. Was a nightmare job done in darkness and the bees were bearding. I smoked as many as I could inside and closed them up. Of course, this morning I have quite a few lost ladies flying around looking for home. Is there any way to help them?
Sorry to hear that Natalie, but you can place a Nuc at the original site with an old drawn frame or even a frame with foundation, they will move in overnight and you can take them to the new site.
