I have my 4 hives, (hopefully 3 soon) at home but check them "very often" normally so I don't get swarms although I was caught out just over a week ago with the sneaky bees making more queen cells after I left them 2 nice ones?!
Luckily my neighbours were very understanding and weren't too worried about the small swarm in their apple tree as I explained that even if I hadn't collected them, they would have more than likely left the following day!
They are half way down the garden roughly 5-60 feet away so hopefully fingers crossed they will behave??!!
If I had an out apiary I would drive there and end up forgetting stuff all the time, getting very frustrated with the whole experience and would probably end up giving up beekeeping??!!
