Thanks Ash, thats the method im gonna go for this year, although i do have a very aggressive hive and would hate to miss a queen cell, i wouldnt want these going AWOL, I THINK IM BEST DESTROYING THIS QUEEN AND REPLACING WITH A CARNOLIAN OR SOMTHING??
I LIKE MY MONGREL BEES AS THEY ARE GREAT AT PRODUCING AND ALSOP PROTECTING THEMSELVES BUT I SUPPOSE I HAVE A DUTY TO NOT LET THEM GET TO ANGRY.
