Subject: Re: [BEE-L] UK Hornets

"reduce the entrance to one, easily defendable, bee-way" --  the same hornets work in a bit of a different way here"

	Just speculating, assume hornets are larger than bees. I use 1/2 hardware cloth folded as a 'V' and squeezed in across the entrance to prevent robbing and mouse entry. Robbers like to fly in which they can not do, takes fewer guard bees at entrance also. Perhaps this would work or hornets?
