Hey all,
What's the best way to hang wild comb to wood foundation? Thanks in advance for the help.
BTW I've been keeping bees for 6 months now and I finally got stung :cry: right on my face. It didn't hurt but my face swoll up. I guess thats all part of beekeeping.
Try using rubber bands to hold them in place.
Yep, rubber bands. You are talking about the brood comb right? Cause I find honey filled comb very difficult to work with
Rubber bands are best, extra long wire ties are second. The large wide rubber bands that the local produce department at your favorite grocer uses for banding broccoli, etc., are the best.
I harvest the hone and tie in the frames of brood. I never had luck with the honey staying in beacuse it's too heavy and fragile.
"Swarm Ketching" frames are the nices though.
