Looking for a used EZ Fill bottler, Mann Lake model. Thanks.
Welcome, you'll find lots of useful information on this forum. Glad to see more people closer to home online. :)
Quit normal; the bigger hives will sometimes have bees moving around the top entrances. If the hive has a good wind break then sometimes they are around the entrance at temperatures as low as -20C...
The tube size was 1/8" As far as I know it should work just fine. The lid was sealed tightly as well.
I tried it this year, but it didn't work for me. The jars seemed to work fine indoors, but when I used them outside the sun warmed up the jar and all the syrup leaked out drowning my mating nukes!!!...
Ok, thanks for the advice.
Is it ok to treat with formic acid while trying to introduce a queen at the same time? I want to make some splits and it's warm enough to treat with formic acid; I use the MiteGone method of...

Hi;
There are quit a few beekeepers about an hour east of there. As soon as the trees stop and the prairie starts to appear. So Maybe you could get into contact with them, because they would have...
It got all the way down to -41F around here, all my bees are outdoors and nicely wrapped up; I think they should be doing just fine. As long as it doesn't stay that cold for weeks on end!!!!
I was planning on getting the book myself, but now I'm wondering it's worth getting or not? Anybody recommanding it, or is there a better one availabe? Does anybody have one that they would like to...

Hi Idrisbee; I will be going to Nigeria in March as part of a church organization. We will be staying in the southern part of Nigeria for close to a year. As a beekeeper I'd be more then willing to...
Hi Jonathan:
Actually, I have no idea what the problem is, maybe I should come over and see for myself how that kit works, but anyway my suggetion is to leave 'em alone. Realease the Queen then...
