I have bees close to horses they ignore each other

Look forward to them proving beyond reasonable doubt that it was his bees and not a ferral colony!

Now up to £75.45 that makes it 75p a jar, standard hex is circa even after last price rises 42p, so on 500 jars that is over £150 of lost profit. Sorry too expensive for me but do like them.

Like you i have an amazing one in Stewart Westsmith as a run an ESA so get three visits a year. I have to agree tough job and many beekeepers do not help a lot when they inspect so all day lifting hives, who needs a gym membership. If i do most of my hives in a day say taking honey off I am...

if there is a QE between the new box and the brood then yes have seen it several times take off QE, bees move up and then put back week later, making sure Queen is downstairs, with Super to Super sure as above bees only use what they need and if possible put a drawn frame in there to encourage...

do you mean this one on Aluen cap strips

Do you have any links to research on this or presentations would love to see.

Yes, The VMD regulations in the UK for approved Oxalic Acid formulations sold permit a single application per year by sublimation. Professor Ratnieks of LASI has stated through that: “The research we have done shows that single and double applications of oxalic acid, 2.25g, by sublimation in...

Follow the big boys, product shrinkage rules. I sell in 8oz hex, why simple you get more per lb for your honey that way. Spend X on a lb is a bigger spend, these days people look for lower prices and do not caclulate price per lb.

I hope you have registered your hives on BeeBase though please.

Simple Bees it is considered need 40lb of stores to go through winter. Go through your brood box/boxes count up roughly how much stores you have. One full frame both sides of national is 5lb. So if you have close to 40lb of stores then no need for a super just feed a bit - unless you want to...

Done more research, seems all the manufacturers break down the jars frome huge pallets. F&H say: Are the jars sterile? The jars are not sterile but are as clean as they possibly can be. The temperatures that jars are made at make it impossible for bacteria to survive the manufacturing process...

Heard back, jars shipped in bulk and lids seperately, but need washing pre use. given £22 difference between them and F&H and hassle of washing 600 jars think i will use them.

think it is if you order off their general list not the honey list.

Question are the lids on and are they sealed in trays like Freeman and Hardy or do lids come separate in bulk.

It was expensive but i have included that in my analysis so all are like for like for roughly 600 jars

I need to buy about 600 8oz hex jars so I have been doing some research, all with lids including delivery: C Wynn Jones £0.46.766 per jar Freeman & Harding £0.45.313 per jar Bottle Co. 432 pack and 216 pack plus delivery £0.41.58 https://www.bottlecompanysouth.co.uk/ Wares of Knutsford £0.46.58...

Can you DM me with your details as i might be interested in some outers, thanks.
