I had no idea the JZ BZ cage had a break away at the bottom to release workers. So exactly how does this work? Once you break away and release the workers do you have to plug the hole to keep workers in the hive from entering the cage? Or a few workers entering from the outside would not be an issue? Not sure I understand the function...
The impregnated with queen pheromone for acceptance thing I think I would have to throw the flag on.... :wink:
So no one knows about the JZ BZ break away???
I use them. The the end snaps off and hinges over and there is a small hole for direct release if one wanted to release workers but I let the bees working the candy plug release everyone.

Wrong break away.... it is in the bottom of the cage...

Sc-B,
I'm not sure what you are asking?
Used it yesterday. Been that way a long time.
