Dear Friends:
I have tried many types of materials to attach comb to frames with
varying degrees of success.  The most effective and quickest to install
I have found to be rubber bands.
Also, bees spend a lot of time chewing off the tie materials.  With
rubber bands, when the bees chew them off, most of the time the bands
snap and fall to the bottom board without further consequences.  Other
materials tend to stick to the combs and one has to remove them later
usually finding them imbedded in the comb. My opinion: I prefer rubber
bands.
Best regards.
