Probably, If there was enough bees to do so, but they are down to a handful of bees.

Hey Glock, sorry not trying to take over your thread, let us know how the mite drop goes after fogging. I have...

I have never used one but I think they are over priced,plus you don't get any wax for candle making or to sell.

rweakley,so far I have not done any treatments since 2009 and then it was with Api-life var. I have read about oxalic acid and it makes me feel a little uncomfortable about using it.

Hey Glock, I am losing a hive to mites for the first time in the spring. I found my favorite queen with a mite attached to her abdomen, the hive is nearly gone but she is still trying. I figure she...

Hello, I'm trying to locate fresh local honey for someone in the Chesapeake area. They have a little boy who has an allergy problem and would like to try some local honey, thanks in advance.

I would bet It was a secondary swarm that had multiple virgin queens.

I placed an order yesterday and added my email then will that work. Thanks for the fast service package arrived in less than 24 hours.

I just placed an order for the Beekeeper's Jacket today looking forward to trying it out. Thanks for fast friendly service.:)

I have to agree with you, maybe others don't mind having cocoons in there comb honey,I Know I don,t like it. I also will not use thin foundation for comb honey,I think bees make the best foundation...
