We know we need to make sure we've got all our supers off before treating for Varroa. However our hives are fairly packed and I'm conscious that we are removing space. We don't want to delay treatment too long - we left it too late last year.
Is removing the space going to be a massive problem?
The supers will be extracted and put back on for clearing out after treatment (some of the old brood boxes we've cleared of brood and are now fairly full of honey so may be put back on scored but unextracted).
