We're beginners at all this.  We installed our bees into their hive
successfully, but we are having a problem with the workers bridging between
the top bars and hanging a comb from it between the frames.  When a frame is
removed from the super the burr comb breaks off.  The frames are pushed as
close together as they will go. We hate to see them wasting all this energy.
How can we prvent this?
