Dear Friends,
On Sunday May 4 around 5:30 PM, I took the swarm colony and combined it with the strong hive. I did place a 2 G bucket of syrup on...the box is sealed up.
Should I leave the box sealed up, or should I provide a top entrance for this group of bees?
I haven't seen evidence of any paper shreds at the main entrance yet. I would hate to come home from my short trip to find the swarm colony had perished due to my inexperience...
What to do?
Muchas Thanks
I always leave a top entrance. I've never had them fail to remove the newspaper with the top entrance open, usually withing 24 hours.
Okay can do! Thanks
