Welcome, bmilesmiles. I'd recommend finding a beekeepers club in your area and see if any of them offer beekeeping classes. You'll meet experienced beeks local to you who can help you out.

Your bees are drifting to the trap.  Move it to another location on your property (preferably further away) with the entrance pointed in a different direction than the hive.

What bees are likely to try robbing one of your weak hives?

Bees that have been told by their sisters that there should be food to collect in your area, or bees that have collected food in that area before and are looking for more.

I don't know about Lyson specifically, but there are several other kinds of bee escapes.  If you browse around on a big bee equipment manufacturer's site like BetterBee or Mann Lake, I'm sure you'll find lots of options.  I know BetterBee is a Lyson dealer, so I'm sure they'd have something.
