Hello all,
I've come across some small styrofoam boxes that I thought might make
good mini-nucs if fitted with three mini frames, a feed container, and
entrance, etc. The thought that comes to mind though, is will the bees
chew right through the styrofoam. It's a very dense styrofoam used in
packing glass containers and the bees would only be in them long enough
to get a virgin queen mated and laying. Another thing that comes to
mind are fumes from the styrofoam (which I cannot detect).
Any comments or experiences on the use of styrofoam would be
appreciated.
Tom
