Well the nights are getting colder. Tomorrow is the Autumn equinox.
I'm assessing the strength of each colony to see if there are enough bees to
form a cluster which will generate enough warmth to help them all survive.
Worse than cold is damp. I am making sure there is enough ventilation to
keep the hive dry.
So ................. Plenty of food, no mites, dryness and somewhere to cluster.
On top of the top box and below the roof is some old carpet to keep out the chill and
a mousetrap ...... yes you've guessed it - to keep out those ******* mice!
