Hi,
I have just moved to new place and the only place I have suitable for my hives is near an airconditioning unit. I was wondering if the noise of it suddenly going on and off will freak out the bees.

Thanks,

Bees adjust to most noise and distraction when it happens all the time. How much heat does the AC give off? That would concern me more.

Not much heat, as it will be about 4ft. away from hives.
I was more concerned with it coming on as it is a noisy beast.

Thanks
