Greetings again,
John Burgess had a good idea to with the use of a drone frame.
Allowing the bees to construct drone comb below a starter strip is a good
method for collecting drone larvae. Instead of cutting out the cells each
time, freeze for a few hours, replace in the hives, and let the bees clean
out the frame. Then, the process starts over. As for a double body, I
don't know why you could not use two frames, one per body. Any thoughts on
that out there? I am not a fan of using chemicals in my hives, unless it is
just absolutely needed.
Thanks all.
Scott Moser
