Reusing Old Beehives from Winter Die-Out

Look at how this guy just goes around in a short sleeved shirt and bare hands. They don't seem to want to sting him, either.



We had a few beehives freeze to death, and I was wondering if I could just reuse them as is. The new bees are coming this week from California. It looks like, yes! No need to completely clean out the honeycomb.

    Fascinating! That saves a lot of time and effort. Good luck; I'll keep my fingers crossed. Those California bees, they don't pay no nevermind to no mold! :)

    Let's hope they don't pay no nevermind to no cold, neither! :)
