Hi all,

One of my hives swarmed yesterday. I caught them before they had moved on from my neighbours garden and they sitting in a new hivebox. I would like to move back next door to their original hive. Is it possible to move straight back there, will they get confused, or decide they are back where they started from and want to move on again?

They will be fine, move them after dark.    They have a new home now.
