A demo of the a version of Snelgrove method of swarm control (Artificial swarming) - done in late April, earlier than in most years on a double brood colony.
The method involves separating the queen and the older foraging (flying) bees from the nurse bees and brood. However in this method it is done vertically and not horizontally. The queen is move to a new box on the original site
The brood and younger nurse bees are in the original box moved aside and will raise queen cells which often need to be thinned to one selected cell to avoid cast swarms.
The full method involves a complex time consuming sequence of opening and closing the doors in the board to balance the bees in the hives. It's often used just as an upper entrance pointing in a different direction.
