Cathouse Hive

Did a 50 minute drive down to Kyle, TX. Friend of a friend had a small swarm establish in a outdoor elevated cathouse. Cute little house with a big 7″ opening, and …. just the right size to be a swarm trap.

.

I peaked into the house and spotted about 5 combs in the dark. Couldn’t see how many bees were on it, but not many. I’ll check on their health this weekend. It is now moved to my outyard.

Hive count 10 or 11
