The pipe is at a slight downward pitch. I prefer it to be level or slightly upward. I have the pipe setup with an open line to allow the bees to go out and return to the comb in the tree. A restrictor will be placed in the line to prevent re-entry into the tree after the bees have gotten use to the box.
The box in place on top.
The hole has been screened. Excess screen will be trimmed.
Stand in place with out top shelf board.
The hole is 9 feet up this burly maple, and is facing east.
The flat bed is backed into the unloading spot.
