Propolis by the kilo


A swarm that I hived earlier in the year, in a commercial hive, has produced a huge amount of propolis. See photos.


The floor was, perhaps, a bit too deep, making the entrance a bit large.

But I have never seen so much propolis.

They made a complete blockade from it - punctuated by tunnels for ingress and egress.

I have now replaced the floor with an open mesh floor.

I'm sorry but I now have to moderate comments after spam has been posted as comment. It's a nuisance.
