Hi all.
I haven't got bees yet but anticipating getting a few hives during the spring. I've listed my name and telephone number with several county agencies to remove swarms from the local area.
I have several old hives that were given to me and need to know what would be the best way to clean them up to ward of disease and pests. Any ideas or references to previous posts? :thumbsup:
During your active engagement with your hives. How often do you get stung? Everytime you're working with a hive or once in a week? Three times a month? Also, I haven't been stung in years. Do I need to be concerned with an allergic reaction? I've been stung many times in the past with no problems. I have heard that later in life people have become allergic to the sting. :s
Thanks
