Hi everyone
We use creosote on all our hives, from the bottom board to the lid.
What we do is, after the second layer, we leave the the whole box
in the sun,wind for up to 6 weeks, after that it is rinsed with water
and let to dry 1-2days.Our bees have no problem occuping the box.
Even wild swarms occupy the empty boxes.
The big thing is, everything must be 120% dry, and the smell out.
We have never experienced any slow working, dwindeling etc. from
our bees.
Regards
Henry
