Description
What is swarm commander?
Swarm Commander is a modern beekeeping tool that uses the power of pheromones, or scents, to help bees find their place in the hive. By releasing a special blend of pheromones into the air, it attracts bees from nearby hives and invites them to move into an empty hive box. This helps prevent swarming—the process where too many bees leave their existing home and swarm around looking for somewhere else to live. This product helps reduce this problem by providing a new home site with familiar scents that attract more bees to settle in?
How do you use it?
To set up the swarm trap, it is recommended to mount it at a height of 6 to 8 feet above the ground and place it adjacent to a wood line. Apply two sprays of Swarm Commander on the bottom side of your inner cover. Also place one or two sprays on the entrance in case you are using a hive. Be sure to monitor your swarm box regularly every 7-10 days for any signs of activity and reapply as required.
Are the ingredients safe?
Swarm Commander consists of a special blend of pheromone compounds called “bee attractants” which mimic the scents that beekeepers naturally encounter when they enter a beehive. These ingredients include bitter orange, wintergreen, and gamma octalactone. All natural aromatics found in flower nectar that act as an irresistible force drawing bees back to their home.
