Its time to start planning our fall hive managment strategies.
Many of the issues we deal with require materials or medications. If we gather those things now, we won't get caught up in the last minute panic and outages along with everyone else.
A partial list might include:
-Granulated sugar. 20 lbs per hive for fumigillin treatment, more if light in stores.
-Fumigillin
-Terrimycin
-Powdered sugar
-Sticky Boards
-Mite Control stuff
Etc, Etc.
We try to get all of this stuff done by August 15th in my operation. Often we feed later though.
