I have a couple frozen supers of honey from last year (mostly goldenrod) which I would like to give to my bees, but don't want them to refill these particular boxes.  Can I get away with putting the super on top of the inner cover and let them empty it over a couple days before I remove it and them not filling it back up?  I seem to think the bees would consider it to not be apart of the hive.  I need the room back in my freezer sooner than later so I can't wait until fall to give it to them (which is not a concern for me).

Thanks.

HI basman  scratch open the frames and use inercover like you say also if you are worried about the bees filling the frames back up place a empty supper with out frames on first then inercover then box of honey then top remove these as soon as posable  watch for ants  hope this helps RDY-B
