Michael. Last year I put out swarm traps, and instead, a swarm simply moved into my new, empty main hive that was waiting in my back yard.
I am putting my traps lower, about 6 or 7 feet off the ground. I saw a lure box at Jim Altmiller's house at shoulder height also.
Finally, since I now have used equipment, the scouts are much more interested in my boxes. I have read that some people used old deeps with good success.
