RE: Some New Reading Material
I have bought 5 packages and caught probably 5 swarms. Sadly, however, i lost my last 2 hives about 3 years ago. 1 was not strong enough to make it through the winter. The other succumbed to small hive beetles the following spring.
I'd like to get back into it, but my wife is allergic. I want to, though, if we're get a bigger spread.
Here are some articles I wrote a while back:

Those were both extremely helpful! I've reblogged them so I can come back later and take notes. Thank you!
