I cannot understand how varroa treatment such as icing sugar dusting is compatible with the "natural beekeeping" practice of not disturbing the brood nest. Could someone explain please?
Hi all. I have had bees now for just a year, 2 colonies but wanting more. I have chance of a 5 or 6 frame nuc ready mid august. I live on S cumbria border, is this too late to get the nuc ready for winter? Advice would be much appreciated.
