WANTED - Your old queens.
If you are changing your old queens for new this spring (not really recommended).
Then may I have them.
Please pop them into a match box but do NOT KILL them.
Please do not put them in a freezer.
Pop the match box in an envelope and mail them to me, I will pay the postage whenever we meet.
My address is the same as your newsletter editor.
THANK YOU.
Mo Vaughan.
BEES WANTED !!
I lost three colonies over this last winter.
I can find no reason for this. All were trreated for Varoa last autumn and given plenty of feed. Checks in mid January revealed empty combs - just half a dozen dead bees on top of the brood frames. Lots of stores remaining.
As I only had these three colonies I now desperately need to restock.
If anyone out there has any bees for disposal then please get in touch. You can email me on the link below.
