A quick bee hive top - just a box really
|
We split a hive recently but found out we didn’t have a top. An emergency piece of sheet rock worked but winter rains are coming! This is essentially just another way to make a box so I thought I’d share it here.

Mo. I miss the days of using my dinghy with a girlfriend too. Zack Butler-4/18/24 The Revos apparently are designed to clamp railroad ties and pull together horrifically prepared joints WaterlooMark 02/9/2020

Nice job on the box lid and I'm sorry...I laughed as you said "What could go wrong" and knew what was coming. Famous last words.

The good news is that I've been stung enough that it doesn't really hurt that much. But it's still an unpleasant shock when it happens.

I would wear the face net and put rubber bands around my sleeves to keep the bees from crawling up. Even after smoking them, you could count on a few stings. Like you say, it is annoying, but not much more.
I tried not believing. That did not work, so now I just believe

Finally got the mesh for the mesh for the screen top. Since the wood work was already done, it was a quick job to get it all wrapped up.
