Hi what does hermetically wrapped in plastic over winter mean what do you use and how do you use this?
it just means wrapped up in such a way that it is sealed and noting can get in.

Hi Isabelle, I am in SA too, have my hive but havenât started yet. I was wondering how your journey has progressed as we have bees in sheds on our farm. Thanks Sally
Sorry Sally. I have not been to the forum for a long time. My bees are going great but I donât have s mentor which makes things a bit harder. The brood box is packed but they donât seem to want to move up to the super! Someone suggested I rub burr honeycomb on the frames and that will intice them up.
If u canât find help- look on YouTube- you can learn a lot- many, many great videos. A good place to start:
Some tips on how to encourage bees to start to use the Flow Frames.
Thanks for that
