hive Bee Bait Swarm Lure/Attract more honey bees to your bait

This bee bait was purchased to catch abee swarm. Great value the smell is amazing, has a lemon grass cent. The application was easy to use with a qtip or can use a cotton swab. Catch rate was a succes within a few weeks we caught a swarm on our first try ever.

I used the Bountiful Bees Bee Bait in my swarm traps last summer and had great success. I kept it simple: just a few drops on a cotton ball, placed inside a small Ziploc bag with the top left slightly open, then stapled it inside the swarm trap. That’s it.Using that setup alone, I caught three swarms in one season. No old comb, no lemongrass oil mix, nothing fancy — just this lure. The scent lasts a long time and seems strong enough to attract scouts without being overpowering.What I like most is how little you need. A tiny amount goes a long way, so one bottle should last multiple seasons if you’re not overdoing it. It’s clean, easy to apply, and much less messy than DIY mixes.If you’re setting swarm traps and want something proven, this bait is absolutely worth it. I’ll definitely be using it again every swarm season.

35$ for an ounce of lemon grass oil...what a rip off!

I followed the instructions but no bees came! I guess it’s due to climate change? My fruit trees bloomed earlier this year, There are beea two miles away at a lower elevation, so no peaches, plumbs this year. 😢

We discovered as spring arrives early that our 2 hives were empty. Heartbreaking. We bought this and 2 days later found a swarm of bees at one or our hives. Hoping they find it acceptable and move in! But amazing response to this product!
