      I'm seeing a trend. I'm thinking we need a permanent beekeeping/removal thread

          It's been close to two weeks since I first noticed them.

            Thanks for answering my questions

            I'm following along to see if you find the queen in the other hive and if you go try to get these as a separate hive. Good luck!

              Checked my hive yesterday after being gone for two days. The comb that Kobe and I rubber banded to my frames is being attached to the frames itself and further drawn out within frames. Additionally, I probably have 10-12,000 bees in the hive still, so I think I got her in the move. I also noticed I had 2 queen cells the other day during removal and when checking them yesterday, they were vacant. With a queen excluder over the top of the entrance, she wouldn't be able to leave if she wanted to. All in all, everything looks good and I've been watching bees bring in pollen yesterday evening and today.

              My only other concern is that I didn't get the queen and I have a laying worker...time will tell.

                  I have the same issue with bees in my water meter box in Frankston. Send me a pm if anyone is interested in getting them.

                        I would rather not kill them. I will be up there on Sunday if you're interested in coming to get them.
