RE: Learning the Art of Keeping Bees With BigPanda -- One

in #homestead7 years ago

The flowhive is so very cool. My neighbor has one. He just picked it up last year and his colony died (darn city sprayed the gully next to his house and the overspray killed his bees).

I really wanted one but hesitated at the cost. I figure I will watch his bees next year to see how they do in the Flowhive. If they do well, I may spring for one.

Definitely, if anyone nearby or coming to visit is allergic you need an epi-pen. Some people are so allergic.

Sort:  

That's one of the reasons we're waiting. City living (even town living) is too claustrophobic for bees.

We'd like to move to a more remote property. It's going to be difficult enough to transport the fish, I didn't want the hassle of bees too!
