I want to become a beekeeper! - Issue #15 - Catching bee swarms. Previously, I had fishing rods and other fishing gear in my closet, and before the fishing season I would take them out and prepare them for work. I would adjust something, change something, buy something. But, at the time when the thought of such an activity as beekeeping came to me, I completely lost interest in fishing, all thoughts were directed to beekeeping. I would be happy to start preparing for the next honey season and would start making hives and frames in the fall, as well as traps for swarms. For myself, I decided that, while I am not sure that beekeeping is my life's work, I will minimize the costs of such a hobby as much as possible, and the lion's share of the costs is de jure the purchase of bee packages. I will go another way, namely, I will try to attract swarms of bees to the hives I have made, and if I can do this before the end of May, I will definitely have honey, since the swarm is much stronger than any bee colony that can be bought on the beekeeping market. At the moment, I am collecting information about different types of swarm traps that I would try in practice, but I would definitely create conditions for the swarms to find my hives on my plot of land. ![1EEDSC02455.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmYtAPso7ei72DsNnA78jQrS1MegiinjrwJv5mAfHnTqVS/1EEDSC02455.png) ____ Zoom in on a photo for a closer view. ____ ### My thoughts on beekeeping [I want to become a beekeeper! - Issue #1 - Nuances of the start.](https://steemit.com/world-of-xpilar/@barski/i-want-to-become-a-beekeeper-issue-1-nuances-of-the-start) [I want to become a beekeeper! - Issue #2 - Timing the Start.](https://steemit.com/world-of-xpilar/@barski/i-want-to-become-a-beekeeper-issue-2-timing-the-start) [I want to become a beekeeper! - Issue #3 - Drying, or wax foundation for starting a lying hive, new facts.](https://steemit.com/world-of-xpilar/@barski/i-want-to-become-a-beekeeper-issue-3-drying-or-wax-foundation-for-starting-a-lying-hive-new-facts) [I want to become a beekeeper! - Issue #4 - Excessive modesty of a novice beekeeper.](https://steemit.com/world-of-xpilar/@barski/i-want-to-become-a-beekeeper-issue-4-excessive-modesty-of-a-novice-beekeeper) [I want to become a beekeeper! - Issue #5 - A place in the sun for an apiary.](https://steemit.com/world-of-xpilar/@barski/i-want-to-become-a-beekeeper-issue-5-a-place-in-the-sun-for-an-apiary) [I want to become a beekeeper! - Issue #6 - Bees and our neighbors.](https://steemit.com/world-of-xpilar/@barski/i-want-to-become-a-beekeeper-issue-6-bees-and-our-neighbors) [I want to become a beekeeper! - Issue #7 - Multitasking of beekeeping.](https://steemit.com/world-of-xpilar/@barski/i-want-to-become-a-beekeeper-issue-7-multitasking-of-beekeeping)
