In reference to using some tool to "stab" brood:
Years ago, the first fall of my beekeeping, I did lots of things I learned
from. I brought several supers of honey into the house, ready for the
extractor.. On closer examination, I discovered patches of capped brood in
the middle of the honey on some of the frames. "Smartly" I took a sharp
kinfe and just sliced the tops of the capped brood off. Next day, to my
horror, I found the floor covered with hundreds of walking wounded. The
bees had been cut in half and only the front half had survived. Not a
pleasant memory,
Just wondering what the actual result would be of your tool???
Eunice.
