Man that sucks I know that pain .. I setup 45 on double screen boards dropped in F1 latshaw virgins.. I checked on them all were excepted .. they got confused during the flow I guess went in the wrong hole.. some yards did better than others but overall what a mess . Splits I set aside about all took .. I tried the double screen boards earlier in the season worked great.. don't seem to work during the flow.. bring a load up here to Michigan will be in flow till mid September.. I have some extra yards you can use.. make up your numbers quick up here without feeding..

That's a good idea. Thanks. I will keep that in mind

How do you store your brood comb frames?

[@ChiltonBeeCompany]

Moth Balls or Toilet Bowl Deodorizers from Dollar General. You MUST look at the ingredients. The active ingredient MUST be para-diclorobenzene. Any other active ingredient may be toxic. For a better idea of how I store them, I have a prior video titled "Storing Drawn Comb"

Ate your boxes treated or raw wood?

[@ChiltonBeeCompany]

We treat them with Eco-Wood but they are Cypress also. Couldn't tell you for sure if the Eco- Wood makes them last any longer but it's worth trying. The Cypress boxes last a long time anyway
