Hello, (From John in South Wales, UK)
What is the best way to resolve a laying worker hive at this time in the season? Is it worth saving the worker bees by newspaper joining above with a NUC or bolstering up the NUC to form a new hive from a another hive with eggs and and larvae and letting the worker hive meet its natural end over winter as frames are slowly taken out and the hive cleared of drones as the bees die off for reuse in the spring?
