Sitting back, sitting here waiting on a call from the Wilbanks Apiary trailer.
My club has around 900 packages getting dropped off within the hour.
This is more fun than waiting til the last minute to file your taxes.
Funny, the average age of the members who show up for the unloading is around 67 yo. Canes, walkers knee braces,..... I'm getting too short to work inside the trailer! The feeble and the feeble minded.

I did that with good results - one of the "natural" remedies that worked for me.

I apologize.

« Last post by Terri Yaki on April 18, 2024, 04:57:41 pm »I added a second jar of syrup and put more holes of a smaller size in the lid and so far, all is working out. I placed some 1/2" slats in there to set the jars on and put the jars off each end of the hole in the inner cover. I can see hordes of bees crawling around through the hole in the inner cover. My hive boxes all have a port on the side that I can take off and look inside and the brood box is not seeing any activity on the outside of the outer frame. I won't go into the hive for another week but is there a time frame when I should expect to see some activity on that outer frame? It was cooler today and the foragers didn't go out until after noon. I'm also seeing a few ants crawling around. Not a lot, just a few, is this a sign of an pending invasion?
