Great idea, I might do as well. Thanks for the tips.

That's exactly how I picture my garden in the future. Thanks for the photos, they'll serve as inspiration to me!

So much greenery... I almost envy you.

Wow, looks so colourful. I hope some day mine will look the same.

Your garden is wonderful Enrico. It's a dream garden.

Love it. I like the idea of a playground in the heart of the garden. But it's a pity that I have little space for that

Both look great. It would be great to have them. I forwarded it to my wife

With all the greenery in it, your garden looks huge. I like it. And the small pond. If I had more space, I would also like one. But doesn't it smell bad after a while?

While this forum primarily caters to beekeepers, I assume that many of us share a common love for gardens, dedicating considerable time to their care and upkeep. After all, our gardens are our own slices of paradise. Let's take a moment to share pictures of our gardens and the furniture that...

I read that all your cats are active. Why is mine so lazy and never say him hunting or never brought me a mouse at home. :rolleyes: Still no more signs of rodents near hives. The spray has a great effect.

I'd suggest starting with a basic business plan structure. Customize it according to your unique needs for beekeeping, like equipment, hives, breeding, honey harvesting, and marketing. Personally, for marketing, I've found this Facebook adspy tool incredibly helpful. It's a tool that offers a...

What kind of cat do you have? Is it a mini lion? :D I also got one, but he is so lazy that he never got any rats. I think he is afraid of his own shadow; that's why I searched for alternative solutions and found this spray that did its job.

This might work.:LOL: I think that the main effect is from the peppermint scent - I read that it deters rodents.

Hey guys, I would like to tell you about this mouse repellent spray from Amazon that helped me get rid of rats. It's a great alternative to regular poisons that keep bees safe and deters rodents. One night at the beginning of September, I observed a few rats near my hives. The next morning, I...

See my post here Unfortunately, I still have sparrows hawking here, and they have much larger appetites than hornets.

After a mild winter, local fields have OSR in bloom already, the meadows are covered in dandelions, blossom trees are getting past their peak, but my colonies have not yet built to a size to get the benefit of all that forage. What are you seeing?

The mild weather continues and It's almost 14C here today. The hives are very busy. There are a few drones flying and some wasps trying their luck. I have never seen that the other side of Christmas before.

I don't remember ever seeing hives so busy in mid December. Mine have a heavy stream of foragers from dawn to dusk, many arriving back with good loads of pollen, Dandelion and lord knows what else. And my IR thermometer reads 24 C when pointed at the brood nest through a perspex window. I'll...

The merge worked well using mesh, with no squabbling when it was removed. Framing the mesh like a QE would make it easier to handle if I was doing it regularly. I am not keen on the 'air freshener' method which I have tried before. Although I used it sparingly, It was there as an off-flavour...

Not so, unfortunately. The strongest is in box 2 &, 3 of 5, the weaker is in box 3 of 4. I plan to harvest honey at the same time too.
