On one of my hives the entrance reducer does not fit into the entrance opening. For three years I have just set it on the bottom board against the opening with no problems. This week I found it on the ground in front of the hive. I put it back in place only to find it on the ground the next day again. Yesterday after putting it back I placed a rock on and against it, and you guessed it on the ground again today with the rock along side it. My hives sit above ground on 4x6's placed on concrete blocks. They are inside a chainlink dog kennel that has electric fence around it starting at 4 inches above the ground. What is moving the reducer? I'm thinking mouse but not sure with this time of year and a very healthy colony. ( I screwed it down today):s
