Hi Larry
Have heard a similar comment from another beekeeper concerning plastic
frames, but they were not peirco. I have ordered some peirco foundation to
use in frames with grooved top and bottom bars. Am planning to cut a
triangular piece out of each corner. *Where in the frame did you cut the
communication holes and how big?
*Has anyone compared the difference between the bees acceptance of black and
white peirco foundation?
 
thanks in advance, Frank.
