Strangely, this week, my bees grab into the small
pieces of styrofoam I inserted in the roof holes in
order to reduce top ventilation. They even grab into
entrance reductors I installed (while I was thinking
they really needed it)! Sometimes, I think that I do
not understand my bees better than my wife... ;-))

Reply: I think you will find that bees will always dig into expanded
polystyrene in the hive, but poly hives are made of a much more dense
compressed polystyrene.
