Hi,

Been keeping bees for 3 years now, 9 hives and counting in the UK.

I'm running all Lang mediums at the moment and I'm thinking of going backwards and foundation less.

I've looked on the blog and can't seem to find anything on swarm control?

Do you approve of artificial swarming or do you just let them spray swarms and casts every where? I cant really afford to let them swarm every where as I have hives in urban areas (the odd one or two is unavoidable though :) )

I have only been using oxalic acid when brood less in the winter. (I'm gonna find it hard not to do that)

I like what you are doing.

Thanks

Andre
