Easy Beesy
Field Bee
Hi all
Went to a meeting recently where it was suggested that regular inspections were detrimental to the colony as this has the effect of lowering the temperature in the brood nest thereby encouraging varroa to breed as they prefer a slightly lower temp than the 35C of the brood nest.
Can I ask forum members their opinions on this please?
