Traps are different.Simply set up like a house.The usual trap for bees and has a side mounting, and the tray.Such a beehive made from plywood to facilitate it.Experienced beekeepers suggest that making traps for bees require ingenuity.This house is not necessary to paint, let it retains its natural color.

Installation extreme frames to the wall clearance is maintained approximately equal to the thickness of a finger.To this end between the wall and the top tool rack fastened.Installing the rest of the frame, too, need to comply with a certain distance, but the design as a whole must not weigh down on such intricacies.Therefore, when moving to the house were not injured, and the queen bee, it is wiser to the walls of the trap with screws to attach the frame of the upper ceiling.And on top of them is laid in two layers of canvas and then put plywood or ruberoid cover and is secured with screws on the perimeter of the house.The trap is raised to a certain height, and tied a rope to a tree trunk.
