moxy 617 Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 I have been hit and miss now for the past month. If there's not snow on the ground it's frozen. Past two week the day temp has barely topped 1 degree. I should have a good few hundred traps in the ground. Instead they are in the motor earning feck all. It's going to be a very busy April and may. I just hope the bees don't start to swarm till late. Quote Link to post
Le Braconnier 49 Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Terrible here too. I've just walked the dog down to the river and I'm sweating cobs. Must be over 20 degrees. 1 Quote Link to post
