We have been given permission to put a couple of hives in the corner of a field that is cut for hay. No other crops. What is the best way to protect the hives from the deer and foxes.
We can put up a screen around them, this will help to make them less visible from the road, but should we also tie them down to ground anchors.
The area can be seen from our bedroom window, and as its the end of the season we can 'test' with empty boxes to see if they get noticed.
