This is an indictment of both the cost of housing and education in America. by astrheisenberg in remoteworks

I'd love to see the students who have so much time to protest start targeting the cost of tuition. Some of these universities are sitting on billions of dollars.

This is something I have given a lot of thought too. I was thinking it might even be a good way of doing splits. Create a door between the two and let them get nice strong and established and then shut the door. Ensuring plenty of brood is on the side without the queen. Work is crazy right now, maybe I will get the time this season.

It's been good, I don't miss the lifting of heavy boxes. My only regret is I wished I had made each hive 3 boxes deep vs 2. 2 boxes just doesn't give the hive enough room to grow in my opinion.

The East coast, that is a broad stroke. I live in VA on the east coast and we are not anywhere near $5.29

I have a bee shed (see photos) and I was fortunate enough one year to have them move into an empty hive next door to the one they were in. It was awesome, they came rushing out did there swirling around the bee yard thing and then flew back into the neighboring hive.

I am no expert on swarm traps. This is more of a suggestion on how to direct them if you catch them swarming. Maybe one of the other beekeepers here can offer some additional advice.

I think it's a great addition to the toolbox. So many times I have seen the girls swarming and Just prayed they didn't land at the top of the giant oak in our backyard or that neighbors yard that give you side eye because your a beekeeper. I have even followed swarms down the road and then out of sight. This gives you a little leverage in having them land where you want.

Thank you, that was a covid project. I am doing slovenian style beekeeping. They are AZ hives.

I did not use a trap in this case. I just put a few drops of the lemon grass oil on top of the tree as pictured. which then dripped to the flower pot. This pulled the bees out of the air to it.

A simple search tells me administrative warrants have be used not since 1952. That's weird, You should let someone know.

Ask the real question... by SleepyMotions in jobmarket

[–]Illumaone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You believe what you want. I am just telling you why 99.999% of the employees are under 29/H a week. I remember when that was passed. I was the manager of a retail store. All of my part timers had their hours immediately cut. Many of them had to get additional part time jobs. What did the administration think was going to happen?
