They say there are no stupid questions so let me pull that litmus paper out on this one: Is there some reason I should not use my beebrush to brush bees away on brood frames to get a better visualization during inspection? I've seen online that other people shake the bees down into the box. I'm uncomfortable doing that as my hives are still so new, and I don't have strong confidence in spotting the queen or knowing whether she is on a frame or not. I'd prefer to use my brush to move bees aside, I just want to make sure that wont damage uncapped larvae/egg cells. Thanks everyone!!
