Again, thanks to those who have taken the time to write.
I am particularly worried about unoccupied brood chambers in storage for a season.
So far, I am hearing they are not a worry, so this puzzles me a bit. Why to the beetles
head for even weak occupied colonies, and equipment from which the bees have
been recenty evicted, as in supers for extracting , but seemingly ignore similar equipment
without bees or recent bee occupation? This somehow does not make sense, or is what
I have heard here so far, just part of the story?
Has anyone on this list had unoccupied brood chambers in storage slimed?
