what do you use for swarm traps five frame boxes or ten frame and what do you bait them with any special location to put them height water crops want to put some out but need all basics never did one before thanks
Do a quick search for placing and using swarm traps. Personally I use 5 frame deep boxes 6"-7" foot high, in full shade and bait them with old comb and a couple drops of lemongrass oil. Others will have other things they swear by.
where can i get lemon grass oil
I get mine from Whole Foods if you have one in your area. About $7 for a little bottle that goes a long way.

that must be like a health food store
Exactly. I bought mine about 5 years ago. About $5 in a tiny 1+oz bottle. I've still got over 1/2 left and I use it every year. A couple drops goes a loooong way.
