Sundog, how do you keep bees out of the pan?

Number 8 hardware cloth formed over the top of the pan.  Haven't drowned a bee yet.  Every couple of weeks I strain out the SHB and other debris, rinse out the brownie pans and replace what bit of oil evaporated.  Haven't noticed any rancidity.

Good luck with your beetles.

:cool:

Good thinking.  Thanx.

I sit on a toolbox to work the hives.  When I put them on tall stand they all blow over in the wind and the supers are put on with a step ladder...
You probably get a lot more wind than I do and I also have my bees protected from most of the wind we do get.
