1st inspection/day2

It was the second part of our inspection last night.  We removed the Varroa board to see what we could find.  Its a bit different from the first time.  Much cleaner and as you can see from the lines of wax dust, the bees are working their way outwards.


Unfortunately we found 4 x Varroa this time.  We treated the bees to a Icing sugar dusting (recommended) this obviously worked as the mites dropped off.  Hopefully there won't be any/as many next week.
