I have some plastic frames from a nuc someone saved me with. They are super nice to use, don’t get bound up with propolis so much. No nooks & crannies for sneaky queens and cells. And a the bees can’t modify/chew and create mayhem.


But, “we” need to improve the economics of alternatives and get them going. One way to do that is to not buy plastic. That’s why I haven’t, yet.


 Ecrotek kindly replied to my email, and explained that the raw materials for their bioform are prohibiting development of alternate frames at the moment. 🤞 that changes soon.


What type of honey is New Zealand famous for?
