[QUOTE="Geoff B, post: 11853, member: 656"] I am in Mid-Canterbury and would certainly not supply gear to another beek who was desperate for boxes. We are constantly being advised of AFB within two ks of our sites. There are other options when you might be desperate to supply bees with extra room. I can recall decades back a very large firm I worked for taped cardboard boxes onto the top of very full hives, worked marvellously and to remove we pulled a steel wire thru to break the seal from the box beneath, sounds rough but we got the results. Boxes were all escaped, bit hard to blow bees in a cardboard box! [/QUOTE]
