I have one super on my hive and it is full of honey. I plan to remove it while I treat for varroa then put it back for the bees over the winter.
If this is ok should I replace it with an empty super to ensure bees have enough room as the young Queen is now laying or would this make the varroa treatment less effective?
I haven't got a centrifuge to extract honey yet and would prefer anyway to leave some for the bees anyway.
