No wonder he's down in NC...I'm pretty sure that Red Wings fans are asked to leave NY during hockey season. And all this while we thought it was to "check on his bees". One more great mystery solved.
Why are the supers stored on their sides? Do those frames have drawn comb? Is that the proper way to store them? I stored my drawn frames inside this year and last week found recent wax moth damage.
To provide maximum light and air movement... to keep the wax moths away.... works pretty good. But they are not there too long before they go in for fumigation...
We use it (phosphine) commonly for fumigation. Yes, plenty dangerous. but we're licensed. We would use ethylene oxide, but it's not licensed for use here in WY. Why do you fumigate? AFB? Nosema? Other?
Mike, I really enjoyed your NUC talk at ABF. I should have tried to find Mark while I was there. I hope to see you you both at EAS in PA this summer. Dan
