I have a whole box worth of old brood frames stuffed with nectar and pollen ;they are really knackered.....lots of holes, coming away from the bottom bars and wires waving about. I sometimes nadir uncapped frames over Winter and they are always empty in the Spring. Might this work with a brood frame under (they are 14 x 12)? I hate to throw all that hard labour on the bonfire.
Cutting them up maybe to super size and putting the remains in feeders has crossed my mind but would the bees take down the pollen?
