I'm thinking of putting a hive in the back garden. It is quite central in the garden. Will it work or will I get savaged everytime I cut the grass?
Below is a view along the back garden. The hive position would be near the blue crate. The granite blob is a water feature!
I would like to put the hives against this fence. The other side of the fence is a vegetable plot and childs trampoline, (still part of the back garden). The houses in the distance are neighbours houses. They would be about 20metres away from the hive.
Could you put a hive here without problems. This spot is away from neighbours. I also like the idea that you can watch the bees at work. The main concern is about cutting grass, and using the lawned area.
Will it be ok in this position, (if you can tell from photos).
This is my first choice of position. Ill post up 2nd and third choices later.
