I have recently started "subscribing" to BEE-L and have found the logged
files quite interesting reading. I recently started keeping bees and have
a couple of practical questions:
Is there an easy way to gently remove the bees clinging to you after
working your bees? I was checking on things a couple of days ago. It was
cooler than normal and when I left, I had an estimated 40 bees clustered on
the small of my back.
When _IS_ the best time to requeen a colony? I have read everything from
Spring to Fall to anytime. I have just relocated a feral colony and probably
need to do so.
