2Socs,
This would bee a disaster if that was located here in florida. As soon as the hive became weak the small hive beetles would start laying eggs all over the hive. In three days they start hatching causing the honey to ferment and drip. In 3 weeks they start crawling out of the hive, looking like maggots, to find dirt. This is a real disaster for the home owner. I hope you do not have SHB.
