Hi been reading plenty on this but remain unconvinced whether its ok to do or not.
I want to keep my hives as wood and just treat so they retain their colour a little longer.
I bought some Teak Oil, a major DIY chains own brand... Now all the Teak Oil they have states they are high in VOC's is this a problem for the bees??
My intention is to paint now with it and let it air in the garden for a couple of months before introducing a Nuc to it In the spring.
Welcome your thoughts
