When replacing hive boxes,do yo have to put the boxes back on the same hives because of pheromone from different bees? Does the pheromone smell stay in the wood of the boxes ?
Acts2:37: Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?
38: Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
39: For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.
40: And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation

No, the smell do not stay in boxes. It has been researched that individual smell of colony is in the wax of combs.

what you need to care for is that you do not transfer diseases to another hive.
