Legal issue on non-Langstroth?

(1/1)

Anonimo22:
I wanted to ask if people ever have any trouble with legal issues or safety with law issues on non-Langstroth hives, such as top barr warre or other types of hives?

(I don't think this is so but wanted to cover my bases. And I don't see either method as inferior.)

One of the reasons I wanted to ask this is because I heard someone quote once that some states stating you have to have 2 deeps or something for a rule, and...what happens if people aren't using the normal system? They can't make up any excuse to take your stuff can they?

BeeMaster2:
We cannot answer your question without knowing what state you are in. Each state has there own laws.

Bob Wilson:
No trouble with my long lang in Georgia.

Michael Bush:
In my experience the only thing inspectors care about is whether it is inspectable.  A crosscombed Langstroth is not inspectable nor is a crosscombed Warre' or a crosscombed top bar hive.  All are inspecable if maintained that way.
