Could I use an old pillow (? enclosed in a binliner) to fill up space in a brood box?
I've a small (and probably failing ) colony on 6 frames in a 14x12 brood box. They're dummied down but I kindof feel it would be better to fill up the box with something rather than leave it empty. I'll put polystyrene over the crown board - but someone suggested that they may chew polystryrene up if it's in the broodbox.
