    What did you do in the Apiary today?

    Very much so . On the fingers is fine . On the meaty bit of the arm it bloody hurts . Sweating buckets inside the gloves doesn't help . Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    Explodeing Nuc

    What make is it ? If its polly could you put a mini polly super with drawn frames on top to give a bit of space ? Or dummy them down into a spare brood body with a frame each side of what they have ? Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

    Asian Hornet Devon 2017

    Just an idea . Maybe Rambling groups could be asked to look for nests at this time of year . Must be a big network of Ramblers that access areas the general public do not . Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk
