Burr comb
« on: January 30, 2020, 07:14:19 am »
Last year I introduced some new foundation that I picked up online at a good price.  It was a false economy because the bees didn't seem to like it.  They continually drew funky burr comb.  Is there a proven means of rejuvenating or making the foundation more enticing?  Thanks.

What is the foundation? Plastic? Coated?
