Yesterday was bad. Today was great. (See Part ONE here: • Fall Hive Prep - ROBBI... ) I went into all the remaining hives to confirm they were queenright, condense the bees down to the brood boxes and test for mites. I started the day at around 9am and was very cautious to keep supers covered while I was inspecting. There were no serious problems with robbing. As of this day, the hives are looking great. The honey harvest looks to be smaller than I thought (since the bees ate a lot of the stores in August) but the brood boxes are filling up fast, so I probably won't need to feed too much. Things are really good!
Stay tuned for my mite treatment video coming up next.
