Hi All
I recently obtained some information on beehuts and I was wondering if
anybody on the list is using them. I saw somewhere that they were popular in
mainland Europe.
I live in Ireland in a damp, temperate to cool climate (somewhat similar to
the UK). We rarely get frost or snow here, as I am within a few kilometres
of the sea, but the winters are cold and usually damp.
I am exploring the possibility of using a beehut in my suburban garden. What
I was wondering was, does a beehut isolate the bees from the noise of
mowers and other gardening machines, as I have had a few stinging incidents
caused by these machines. And are there any significant disadvantages which
would need to be borne in mind when evaluating beehuts?.
Thanks for your help.
Sincerely
