That was for trickling it. I hope - (mine get nine doses a year as an absolute minimum......)

Pride before the fall?

A common over reaction is reading the headline,panicking and whacking a full rapid feeder on without checking the status first and then crippling available brood space. Btw if you look at the gauge once in a while you don't run out of fuel.....

I made some nuc floors with frontal ufe's and they appear to work really well with no wasps found inside the boxes However I will have to revisit the design as I made no provision for detachable easily sterilizable components. After an albeit mild cbpv outbreak I take no chances anymore.

Don't mention ley lines or James will be chewing the upholstery,but..... Without realising it I placed the majority of my bait hives along a similar feature and they get hit more than the ones away from it. As a pup I had a summer job with a farming contractor and one job was silaging the...

I reckon another week before it begins, looking at what we have here.

It was probably a syrupy fingerprint that initiated it in my case I don't use the MM feeders now-just stack a super with fondant

I've had them attempt to chew through a polynuc feeder.

You will have already left a good number of flying bees when you dismantled the hive. They will find alternative accommodation themselves.

There's plenty of recipes to Google and it's a handy thing to have if you get caught short But material and energy costs put it on, at best, level pegging with commercial stuff. If you factor in your time,the scalding,and the scolding when the kitchen is a United Nations disaster zone then it's...

And if it were down to centrifugal force many folk will have a machine that can fit through doorways and cannot go any bigger

If at first you don't succeed, then they're not worth messing with unless you've nothing better to do.
