Black Mountain Honey is an all natural, untreated, cold filtered, Welsh wildflower honey. 

 

We care about pollinator diversity. That's why we give away a FREE packet of pollinator friendly wildflower seeds with every order.

Swarming is the honey bee’s method of colony reproduction. The old queen and about half of the worker bees leave their former nest and seek a new home. This can happen anytime from April to September in the UK. 

​

You can set up a swarm trap in your garden in order to attract a swarm of honey bees. It's best to get your traps set up early in the season to stand the best chance of catching a prime swarm of bees. 

​

We provide a low budget, swarm trap kit with all of the key components to help you attract a swarm of honey bees into your bait hive/swarm trap.

 

You just add plywood or a new/used beehive in order to complete the kit. 

This listing includes the following items:

1 x DN4 Disease Free Dark Wax Brood Frame
1 x Vial of Commercial Swarm Lure
1 x Metal Entrance Disc
1 x Cutting List to make your own plywood swarm trap/nucleus box.
1 x List of Instructions on how to set up a swarm trap

​

We provide an A4 copy of a cutting list so you can make your own swarm trap. You can also set up a bait hive with any new or used beehive.
