Hi, Living in California, the weather is usually not too extreme, so many beekeepers here are starting to not paint or only minimally paint their hives so as to avoid extra chemical strains on the bees. I painted the joints on mine then do linseed once a year in the spring. This is my first year, but the bees and the woodwork seem fine.

Unfortunately I suspect the UK is somewhat not like California :-( However, at least I know somebody else does use it - and IU suspect it should work here OK Back to top   Ads Advertising Sponsor Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         Agriculture Industry Forum Index -> Bee Keeping All times are GMT Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Agriculture Industry----------------Agriculture IndustryBee Keeping  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Australian Debt Consolidation Experts medical insurance Wedding Websites ESCORTFORUM: recensioni di escort e girl Free Porn Linguistics Talk personal loans Make Your Own Website Free phone calls to Canada Long island Cleaning service Mold UK Swingers Genuine Contacts Site Janitorial Supplies Hoover Vacuum Parts 129 Attacks blocked Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2005 phpBB Group
