Step By Step: 1  As soon as you get the NUC to your apiary, place in its permanent location with the entrance at the same place as the entrance to the hive will be. 2  Remove the block to the NUC entrance and wait at least 24 hours. The bees will orient to the new location. Move the NUC to the side of the hive location and replace it with the empty nest box. Gently smoke the entrance to the NUC. Remove the top of the nuc and spritz the bees with a light sugar syrup.
After a day or two, though, youâll need to open the hive (with smoker going), remove the empty package box, and replace the frames. Donât do anything else. Leave the queen cage undisturbed until 6 or 7 days after installing the bees. The drawback to this method is that you have to disturb the bees so soon after hiving them to remove the package. And you might find that the bees have started to build some comb in some of the empty space left by the missing frames. If so, you'll have to scrape that comb out. But if youâre shaking a bit over the prospect of shaking bees a bunch, try this alternate method of installing package bees!
