Rhombus every time! I used to use the Porter bee escapes but they get clogged with propolis AND there were always some bees left in the supers.

Wow.....£10.00 a lb......well done! As I’m not far from you means my price won’t be competing. More power to your elbow as it’ll hopefully demonstrate to others in Shropshire that we‘re selling a premium product!
