New Bee
Hi all,
I've 2 strong colonies and a (fairly) new nuc made from a swarm 3 weeks ago.
This morning, I noticed over the course of 20 minutes 3 wasps entering the nuc entrance. My question is - how long until the hoards arrive (I'm at work and powerless at the moment)? I've never had a wasp issue until now.
Also, given that the 3 hives are in the same apiary - can I expect all 3 to be subject to wasp attacks, or is it very hive specific?
I expect I'll find out more this evening, just trying to be prepared
Many thanks
