OK, so here’s how one of my hives looks.....
SUPER - most frames are about 75% sealed stores, 25% unsealed.
BROOD - 5/6 frames with Eggs/Brood, but very little stores in those frames, and in the outside frames.
I need to treat with Apiguard, but want to remove the super first (think I’ll need to return it instead of extracting).
I’m aware if I remove super, they have little stores.
Should I feed syrup at the same time as treating with Apiguard, then put back the super when Apiguard has finished? So at least they’ll not be without stores.
