Last week I received my shipment of bee supplies from Dadant & Sons. I ordered two small honey supers with frames and plast-cell foundation.
Today I started painting the supers to get them ready for a potential fall harvest.
I checked the hive today on the outside and everything looks good. I didn't see any ants or other pests. The pvc moats seem to make a difference. I noticed all kinds of strange bugs in the moats.
I finally replaced the top jar with one that has beeswax smeared all inside of it. I am still hoping the bees will fill it with comb.
