> The greatest danger comes from pulling a frame that has drone comb built on the bottom bar, as the wider comb can roll bees and more importantly queens unless care is taken.
I agree totally. Those projections are queen and bee killers even with experience beekeepers. I slid my hive tool along the bottom bar and clean them off. It’s messy but better than killing the queen. Randy talks about this all then time.
