- Less than 100. Er, 6, actually...
This means a bee in a brick cavity of an unoccupied section of a house or building.. e.g. disused chiminey is thermally worse off than even in a thin wooden hive.
I used to pass by a feral colony in a derelict stone barn, they went in via a hole in the mortar (mortar??).
But after the bitter winter of 2010/11, I did not see them again.
