Hi,

First-year beekeeper here, and just a few hours ago I found my hive swarming, and they’ve settled in a nearby tree. From what I’ve read, I can attempt to capture this swarm in a nuc box, leave them overnight, and introduce them into a new broodbox and keep them. I’m not 100% sure though, and don’t know where to get a broodbox in such short notice. Any advice/knowledge where to pick one up, and how long I have to do this? 

Thank you
