You would think that would be the better way to go. Certainly less invasive, especially since there seemed to be a clear entry and exit point.

I've wanted to get a couple hives but just haven't been able to commit to them yet. One of my customers stated off as a hobby two years ago and now has 200 hives scattered around his land and driving range. I forget what you call them, but he started building his own starter hives and starts from scratch rather than buying the started hives now. He'll be a great resource when I can finally do it right. He wants to start doing some workshops so I'll definitely take advantage of them when he does. Honey bees are such an important part of our industry (home gardening) that I want to do what I can to encourage their proliferation. Their decline is still disconcerting.
