I'm currently feeding syrup to my hives and was wondering if it's possible to Gas Vap at the same time. Whilst not a problem if it can't be done, just thought it might be a time saver for me. Thanks.
Christmas treatI have fondant above the crown boards . usually I put this on after vaping . I have read mid December is the broodless period, regardless of the weather . Hopefully I can get on with vaping ?
3 vapes at 5 day intervals ?
I usually vap once . Around New year .Just once at this time of year
I was going to ask what others did!Just once at this time of year
Much more effective doing three vapes five days apart, with ten days you risk getting mites going back into the sealed brood.two vapes 10 days apart.

yesHopefully there shouldn't be any sealed brood now so one vape is enough, Shirley?
I did ask the question of Ratnieks when he was in Wales a few years ago plugging his 'hygienic' queens He flatly refused to consider doing research on the 3x5 method as 'why? my method works, no need to trial others'I haven’t seen any proper studies done on the 3 x 5 regime so academia has to try to catch up with practical beekeepers.
Its supposed to be taboo to blow your own horn. I’m constantly astonished by intelligent people seeming to be arrogant or perhaps being to arrogant. Our current understanding is probably just the tip of the iceberg.I did ask the question of Ratnieks when he was in Wales a few years ago plugging his 'hygienic' He flatly refused to consider doing research on the 3x5 method as 'why? my method works, no need to trial others'
