Oh come now. Surely you appreciate being given a rhubarb plant to help control your varroa.what an absolute load of misleading bollix most of their hype is firmly entrenched in cuckoo land
I wonder how long before using an axe backwards to drive a post into the ground will continue before the user needs their head stitching together.what an absolute load of misleading bollix most of their hype is firmly entrenched in cuckoo land
Is the Beehaus still made?Many have tried ... most have failed. I suspect that they will be another flash in the pan.
They stopped selling them in the USA a while ago - I would not be surprised - they also seem to have discontinued some of the Eglu colours as well - signs of the times perhaps ?Is the Beehaus still made?
I notice it isn’t on the Omlet site
Completely & utterly agree - a company promoting & encouraging utter bolax. In my view should be treated as a severe case of AFB, burnt & buried.what an absolute load of misleading bollix most of their hype is firmly entrenched in cuckoo land
I think that gauntlets through a clear box to handle "hazardous" goods is pretty well established "prior art" and their claim to hold the intellectual property is nonsense. I guess they could try to licence it to Porton Down!I’m intrigued by the fact they say they hold the “intellectual property ” rights to a polycarbonate box with holes in the side which fits in a Transit van.
Do they really think someone else will try to “muscle in” on their market.
Best use of the box would be as clear crown boards!
Come in, folks, they probably have a side-shoot. They supply hives with the purchasing businesses logo on and for the business that buys most from them they award a giant tankard, annually. This is presented to the majority shareholder as "Mug of the Year".Completely & utterly agree - a company promoting & encouraging utter bolax.

Creditation to iso whatever whatever - always amazes people/businesses buy into this

Don't knock it , I have home made rhubarb and ginger jam and occasionally thymol 'infused' honey on toast. Been Varroa free for as long as I can remember.Oh come now. Surely you appreciate being given a rhubarb plant to help control your varroa.
Exactly!"Rent a hive for your home and get fresh organic raw honey delivered safely directly to your door."
I wonder where they're getting their organic honey from?

True, but give Thalia credit for finding a niche in the market and trying to make a business out of it. Sure, the broken bottom bar, over-smoking and thick gloves marks her out as a novice, but those errors won't be known to the corporates, and she does emphasise planting for pollinators.greenwashing for corporate clients
In the written blurb she also advocates planting rhubarb adjacent to hives to prevent varroa! In fact every sponsered hive gets its own rhubarb plant, oh, and two new trees.True, but give Thalia credit for finding a niche in the market and trying to make a business out of it.
