use a 3/8 or little longer staple and you can pry them off to change foundation if needed. I just find a stapler easier to handle than holding little nails and pounding them in.I got 10 wedge frames and hook foundation.I want to use it in my brood nest when I get 2 packages friday.Im putting five in each hive hope the wax encourages them to draw.I have nails but may use staples I didnt think of that before.Will the staples pryout easy?
