Hello
I have a flat pack hive ready to build and wonder which preservative/woodstain to use. I have Sadolin advanced one coat woodstain ready to go on. There is nothing on the label to say good or bad for insects/bees.
Also I assume its more important what on the inside wood as its next to the bees and they crawl on it and will get any fumes. Although by the time I stock the hive with bees next year there surely wont be any fumes.
Thanks
