Top Tips for June....

  • Remove spring honey from the hive if required

  • Watch for food shortages this month and feed as necessary. Remove supers if you do this to avoid sugar being stored in the frames

  • Continue to monitor hives for pending swarms and undertake control as necessary.

  • Varroa can start to increase over the next couple of months so check that it's not getting out of control. Main treatment is in August after removing the honey crop.
