Dear Ron
Sounds ideal to me. 110 degrees is absolutely fine. The entrance should be
southish facing away from the prevailing wind. Your climate is pretty
similar to ours in the East of Scotland. Shade in the afternoon will prevent
the hive getting too hot, but the bees will still forage and facing
south-east will get them going early in the morning. Are you anywhere near
Munka Ljungby? Joel Svenssons Vaxfabrik there (www.joelvax.se
<http://www.joelvax.se> ) is well stocked and the staff are very helpful.
Good luck,
Ross Langlands
