The book is mentioned at the end of the video. I say “The Book” deliberately. If I could only choose three books from my Library of fifty. This would be one of them.

Also David, as i'm using (salvage off cuts of ) vollige board (they have a half lap tongue at the top and bottom) is there any problem if i put a support baten in for the slats. I like the idea of using these boards as the boxes fit over each other for stability (it gets very windy here in the Gers)

Great information... How old is that keyboard ;)

Good explanation to build the Warré, thanks only one question, how do you waterproof the feederbox? use wax or ?

Tip: Exterior house paints. They’re made to last decades.

I'm a fellow Welshman now living in the south of France. I'm in the process of building my 1st Warre hive. Can you please let me know where the feeder box sits. I'm pre-suming under the hessian box.

What do you do instead of the gloss paint, I missed it :)

@florianpertynski5868

4 жыл бұрын

I haven't heard either, but it could be something like *linseed varnish*: it penetrates the wood (need to apply at least twice and heat it up a bit) and leaves the natural look of the wood. Dr Heaf's hive is all silvered wood, so it could be that. (in any case, I use linseed varnish + 2 layers of gloss but maybe that's overdoing it...)

Why do you drive a nail through the frame?

@daniel4647

2 жыл бұрын

Just to keep it in place so it's evenly spaced and doesn't get pushed to close to the one next to it or even falls down. This one stick is a lot lighter than a full frame that has a full sheet of starter wax and metal wire and everything so it gets easily pushed around. Personally I prefer to just make slots in the box though since I like being able to lift them out and check them easily. Or like he pointed out in the video you can use a nail but drill a tiny hole that's slightly larger than the nail and then you get the same functionality as making slots for the frames.

I don't want to sit and complain, I'm sure in your situation, this must work or you wouldn't waste time doing it, but you must not have much in the way of hive pestilence where you are or you're fighting a lot of them we're not hearing about? When you build or purchase a hive - _especially in the Midwest - US,_ the first thing you have to do is eliminate ALL, cracks, crevices runways/seems, etc in the assemblies? Even the end cuts of plywood and grooves in any component, including the rails - have to be plugged up. That roof with all your little shavings would become an absolute nightmare, especially for hive beetles, wax moths, spiders, ants and just about everything else that destroys a hive. There's just way too many places throughout the whole hive that would become instant problems. We can't even leave standard, metal covered covers as they are when purchased? Which is usually a folded over and nailed tin or aluminum sheeting, tacked to the primary wood cover. We take them in, and systematically plug, via propolis or caulk every seem, crack and crevice with coats of paint, including where the tin meets the wood. If you don't, critters of every kind will take up residence until they've overpopulated the space they've infested, then they'll move into the primary hive, at which point, it's usually too late to help the bees. This is the problem with every hive though, not just these. You mentioned using *_treated lumber?_* That's a serious NO-NO - that is, if you're after pure honey and healthy bees? Painted or not, the toxins will leach out of treated lumber no matter what you do with it. It's astonishing we're building toxic waste dumps in this day of supposed, "enlightened" humanity *_(laughable-lie)_* - for playgrounds, swing-sets, decks etc., for our children pets and loved ones to play and hang out on? You said when it reached "high 20's" bees suffered? That's not even 90 degrees _(F)_? We're dealing with months of 90-110 degrees? Can't imagine what would happen? As soon as the temps reach 60 _(F)_ through the evenings, we switch to screen bottoms, or they'll roast. The comb begins to darken, after a while, it'd be nigh black, and begin taking on a foul odor, so much so, the bees won't even eat it if they're starving in the winter. We have a shade tree/bush for each hive to block afternoon sun - they'd leave had we not put them in. We have a filtered 1000 gal pond with a special designed waterfall for the bees access within a 100 ft of the apiary and it's a constant super-highway of bees zinging back and forth sun-up to sun-down. I swear it seems we have to add a 100 gals a day in the summer? No, for people who don't use toxins and pest killers, this is not a good idea for where pests abound and temps roar over 100 degrees routinely, but it is a nice idea. - We often stick empty frames in our hives and the bees will fill them up before working on the boarded frames - that part we like - and yes, they can be spun, we do it all the time, even without wires. Anyway, felt it important to point that out to anyone thinking about investing a bunch of money or time in these things. It can be done, but as with everything in the apiary, it'll need to be seriously thought through and redesigned to fit each environment.

Here in Baltimore, the bees fill all the cracks and spaces with propolis. My colonies all have gabled tops where spiders and ants make their nests and live in harmony with the bees...no issues from spiders or ants. Beetles are a problem here but then again the bees here keep their population in check all year long.
