Hi all

Currently, it seems that all that there is to Housel
positioning is a center rib or transition cell and a mirror
on both sides of this rib?cell, and that this is the
natural state of all combs. OK so far?

reply:
No, given time yes!

Bill then wrote:
We then take these combs and insure the orientation is the
same between frames so that the natural state and
orientation is preserved? OK so
far?

reply:
Yes, for the most part it can be used to alleviate stress
and minor common problems in domestic colonies concerning
orientation. One to a handful of broodcycles? or varying
lesser degrees over a period of time.

Bill further wrote:
I have no idea what the orientation is or how it is
maintained and why it is needed. Thought I did. Need more
Y's and A's and clarification.

Reply:
Need dimishes with time and final build-up of colonies into
commercial operation for full production strength.

Bill ended:
Anything more?

Reply:
No, will continue using, as only time will tell the
advantages, disadvantages on a natural system under man's
control without various treatments of chemicals, drugs,
essential oils, acids, and FGMO for production of CLEAN
hive products.

Sincerely,

Dee A. Lusby
