>Another set hundreds of boxes on end in the sun outside and reported that
after a couple of weeks, bees could be restored.

This is my practice.  The sun does not hit the combs, so don't know how
relevant "in the sun" is.

And I also thank Pete Borst for stimulating discussion on the List.
Although his posts may result in my challenging some statements or claims,
posts to Bee-L should not be about winning an argument, but rather to be
the sort of scientific questioning necessary for us to advance our
understanding of any subject.

Shall we proclaim March 18th henceforth and forever to be "Thanks to Peter
Loring Borst Day" on Bee-L?
