    Another great & informative video Trev. You may cover the legal requirements in a following video but just a note that new beekeepers will require to register their hives within 30 days with AsureQuality.

    Hi there. I recommend dried horse manure or cow patties for smoker fuel. And also a good wind proof torch for the kit to get it started nice and quick. Thanks for adding that as it really is a good recommend.

      Also Trevor you are a fine example of a person who has achieved great success in finding suitable pharma buyers for propylis, meeting and exceeding the health code requirements and reporting requirements. And you are very much an important person for new bee keepers to look to as an example of what it takes to make that branch of bee keepers goals.

    G'day Trev, I like your videos you're putting up. I particularly liked your wire frame holder.
    Are you happy with the Paradise Honey Beebox system? We're across the ditch in milder temperatures but the system still seems good. I haven't spoken to anyone who's independent who can provide feedback however. Would you recommend 8 or 10 frame boxes?

      Awesome, thanks Trev. Can you say why you prefer 3/4 depth?

      Thanks Trev, I'm binge watching your videos while enjoying some much needed rain over here ;) It looks like you've got some Paradise boxes in both deeps and 3/4.
      A big shout-out to your camera person. They're doing a great job too. Thank you both for helping noobs like me, much appreciated.

    The other reason for two hives, is you have some direct comparison and it makes it easier to see what's going on.
