    Cutting Off a Queens Mandibles

    The last words in the article are;" Why not try it next season and let us know how you get on" As it was in our magazine I would say, yes. The article was written by Tony Harris NDB, Scottish Expert Beemaster, Moray. Under The Heading; Multiple Queen Colonies. .

    Cutting Off a Queens Mandibles

    The above topic was in the September BBKA news, pages 313-314. You can have two queens in one hive. (Not mother and daughter.) I have read about this previously somewhere on this forum. One of our members resigned because he said that the BBKA was promoting this practice. What do you think?

    Autumn/Winter treament

    I now only use thymol for putting in the syrup ie Hivemaker's? I would just stick to Oxalic :)

    What did you do in the Apiary today?

    Yep, same thing happened to me. I meant that the tape would be necessary at first. ;)

    Alternative hive roof material??

    Good point, but you adapt. Poly hives a good example. As for brambles, keep your apiary clear. :D
