Swarm Trap

Today I put the finishing touches on a swarm trap.  It is based on a design I saw at the bee school in Henderson, Kentucky, last month.  Basically, it is a 5 frame nuc with a 1 inch hole in the front, a detachable lid, and an arm for hanging.  I hung it behind the farm house with some drawn comb in it to see it any wild swarms will take an interest!
