We've received numerous reports from purchasers, with many successfully attracting bees! We also have many repeat customers. Please take a look at photos 2-12 for last year's results, including successful captures and occupancy. ◇◇We believe Kinryohen orchids are effective for attracting Japanese honeybees. However, with Kinryohen alone, scout bees may visit, but they often don't settle. For those without Kinryohen, or for swarming outside of the flowering season, we offer our specially improved attractant liquid, which has a proven track record. In addition to the usual spring swarms, our attractant liquid has also been used to attract bees in July (grandswarms) and August (absconding swarms). ◇◇This is a newly manufactured attractant liquid for '26. I also use it myself, and I improve and sell it every year. Japanese honeybees even fly in while I'm making the attractant liquid (photo 18). ◇◇The attractant liquid and nest debris can be stored frozen for a year, so it's a good idea to prepare early. ♪♪We also sell a separate swarm collection board, so please take a look. ◇◇With detailed instructions◇◇ First-timers have praised the "thorough and easy-to-understand instructions." These are examples of how to prepare the waiting box, where and how to set it up, and how to apply the attractant liquid. ◇It's good to have many waiting boxes, but sometimes they'll move in quickly if you change the location. ※Location selection is important. ◇We usually set up multiple waiting boxes, and we've had many successful captures even in locations without Kinryohen (photo 12) and with only the collection board (photo 16). ◇This is the ultimate set for effectively capturing Japanese honeybee swarms. ◇Attractant liquid: Japanese honeybees prefer used properties, so applying it to the waiting box creates a more familiar environment. In my experience, it's particularly effective to thoroughly soak the entrance and the ceiling inside the hive. Also, instead of applying it just once beforehand, apply it multiple times, but not to the point of being sticky, and it seems best to apply it during the swarming season, especially in the morning. ※The key is to apply it to the outside of the waiting box every 2-3 days; the scent will attract scout bees. ◇◇Beeswax: Melting it onto the ceiling with a burner is effective. While we don't guarantee capture, if Japanese honeybees are living nearby, the chances of capturing them are very high. #JapaneseHoneybees #JapaneseHoneybeeAttractantLiquid #JapaneseHoneybeeAttractant #JapaneseHoneybeeHive #AttractantLiquid #Beeswax #Beeswax #NestDebris
