Title: burn barrel
Post by: knob21 on May 13, 2008, 06:47:34 PM
I just put in my first hives (3) this week. Now my neighbor put a burn barrel on his property about 65 ft away. Will this cause problems with my hives?

My barrel is closer than that and have noticed no problems however the smoke usually blows away from the yard.
