    At what point will the NBU give up on AHs?

    The most sense I have seen written on AH has been on here. Especially the comments from Karol, way back I found his knowledge on wasps really interesting, and now even though he could have benefitted greatly from the 'panic' buying, he has held his line, that of the NBU, monitoring wick & bait...

    God I love growing our own

    Wow thank you for the comprehensive reply James. I think I'll start with some Jalapenos, a cherry tomato, and one of those sauce varieties Amish Paste or Polish Linguisa. Tomatoes from my dad's greenhouse always tasted amazing, I can see a chilli competition coming with my son who's...

    God I love growing our own

    Have had poly tunnel envy for a while. I'm never going to get one, or have the time or skill for a whole tunnel. But I've just inherited one of the small walk in plastic tube greenhouses (walk in is a bit of an exaggeration 😂). Plan is to put it up at work, tucked away, and look...

    OA treating was the one thing that for some reason I really didn't enjoy at all. Never really got to grips with the gasvap, Genius bit of inventing, just never seemed to make it 'go' as all their videos did. So my results were a bit hit and miss I fear. Hopefully this will make all that a...

    Sorry for delay, had to wait till my not so forgiving lady wasn't close by 🤣🤣. Total for the compact, couple of cleaning caps and the poly hive nozzle covers, plus delivery was £374.79

    James. I just rang Duncan, and he sent me an invoice and payment details. Slight delay while they got the different battery fixings, but I'm guessing that was a one time issue. Duncan mobile 07810 074422 Mark

    It's arrived. 😎 Very indulgent of me, but one of the few things I've seen that has had amazing reviews worldwide. Just need this next cold spell to pass and I'll let you know how it goes. As I've got a couple of colonies that had bigger drops last year, so they'll be a good test bed for me...

    They do have the compacts. Ordered one a bit back, called Duncan for an update this morning, and it's been delayed as the battery fixings are slightly different. But will be with me Monday or Tuesday he says. 😎

    Creamer conversion ideas?

    And that's why I'm here..... I hadn't thought of most of those things. . Thats decided it thank you all, bad idea then. Will sell it locally then 👍. And carry on with the drill.

    Creamer conversion ideas?

    I was wondering that too. It's not plastic, but stainless steel. I was thinking of a much improved brace across the top, to take the motor, and as I said, a much larger motor, there's not going to be the rotational momentum of an extractor, but rather a drag through thicker stuff, at about...

    Creamer conversion ideas?

    I've just upgraded my extractor, and therefore have a vevor hand driven one left. It was only £100 new, and rather than sell it I keep looking at it wondering wether I can convert it to a powered creamer, as I seen to get a good dwL more OSR honey than anything else early on, and it's started...

    What's flowering as forage in your area

    Field of mustard close by, lots of bees on it on the warmer days, hadn't really though of it as a source of late nectar, some are still hefting light, little bit surprising considering how much they've been fed, and there looked to be a good amount of ivy coming in.

    I made an app to help you determine when best to inspect your hives, InspectNext

    This is prompting me to go see Dr too. 30 years of big dogs barking in my ear, radio, sirens etc. Have all taken their toll, but the didn't hear you excuse is good at times 🤣

    Dani. I've asked similar questions of the UK supplier. You get one dispenser with it, the cleaning caps are extra as are the poly hive protectors. Not a massive additional cost but still something I think should be included, especially the cleaning cap, purely on safety grounds. The...
