Tuesday 25th March—Beekeeping myths
Craig y Don Community Centre
Pete Sutcliffe vice chair of BBKA will give a talk on Beekeeping myths at Craig y Don Community Centre. A new speaker and a new topic.
Welcome and refreshments from 7.20pm, meeting starts at 7.40pm.
Examples:
- “Banging on a dustbin lid will somehow get a swarm to settle where you want it”. True or false?
- “The acarine mite was responsible for the loss of about 90% of the nation’s honeybees in the early 20th century”. True or false?
There will be plenty of other examples. Do you know of any others from personal experience?
