Got a call from a friend wanting me to check their hive. Last time I was there I treated it with Apivar, that was 14 months ago.
I asked her what her treatments had been since then, my heart sank when she said she hadn't done any.
So I go there, expecting a seriously ill or dead hive. But no. Opened the hive and discovered the Apivar from 14 months ago was still in the brood box, and the bees were in good shape 😮.
