This is home of The Bees In The Dale and novice beekeeping tales along the Backwards and truly Organic Way. The bees are feral bees collected from wild swarms. Bees do it all alone, no help from me, no drugs, no meds, no treatments by humans, just shelter and water.
What a sad sight. Since I had no real clue what caused the bee die-off it was recommended I toss the old comb. There was no honey and a chance that some of it could have poison in it so out it went. I had twenty frames, most with comb, to dispose of. I left an inch or so of comb at the top of the frames for a guide when any new bees are here.
OOOOOOOOOOOppppppss..\ Just got a call. I am off to attempt to collect a swarm of my own
