The mice are about!

[jimbeekeeper]

Just been tidying up the bee shed, and the mice have eaten a 3" hole in my bee suit, it my own fault for leaving it bundled up in there.

A couple of years ago it went all mouldy, so I dyed it green to match the mould, this time its a trip to my Mums for a patch job + maybe a re-dye.

Hope all your hives are mice proof?

Got a hole chewed through my leather glove left in the garage. Think they must have been after traces of propolis/honey/wax left on them.

No clothing damage but went to get 3 x 2 Kg pre-cut chunks of fondant out to discovered quite a considerable amout knawed and missing, along with the corner of the cardboard box they were sealed in. 2 x traps in garage last night; 2 x mice with sweet teeth despatched. More tonight and every other night 'till there is na'more
