Got another cut out this morning, i wish they were all this easy.
Never did find the queen, hope the bee vac got her. Two good solid frames of brood and 1/2 frame of honey, and 1/2 frame of honey to the property owner. Thanks to Shannon and her friend Cori. Shannon owns the house and her friend cori came over and took some pics and got a little bee education.
Can you find us??

Here we are, this little knot hole made a perfect entrance.

Little swarm been there about three weeks, nice brood pattern and some of the sweetest clover honey you ever tasted.

All finished, the boards nailed back on and holes caulked up.

If they were all this easy, everyone would want to do them.... Great Job!

Well I can't seem to locate the queen in this little cut out. Have been through them two times, only two racks of brood and 1/2 rack of honey. Either she is quick on the run or I don't have her.
I think I will give them a couple of days and see if there are any eggs being layed.
Got all of the bees in the vac but never did see her.

I hope you got the queen and congratulations on yoru cut out
