So I am a complete beginner but I have a question about drones.
Since culling drones is/was a method of reducing mites in the hive, I was wondering if there was a time in the Fall/ early winter when you could pull out the drone comb, or cut it out without causing them to immediately waste energy building more. I.e. get rid of the drones when they would but while still likely to reduce mites.
