Treating my bees again tomorrow at 6pm.
I did an oxalic acid vapour treatment back in December when I believed the colonies were likely on a brood break — but I couldn’t be 100% sure.
So I’ve been following up.
New video premieres tomorrow at 6pm where I explain why timing matters with varroa management.
I’ll be in the live chat at 6pm
How are your colonies looking at the moment?

A new chapter begins for The Honey Herd.
I’ve just shared a new video documenting the setup of a brand-new apiary site — walking through the real decisions behind choosing a location and expanding responsibly as a beekeeper.
This one’s calm, practical, and very much part of the bigger journey.
As always, thanks for following along — your support genuinely means a lot 🐝

THE HONEY HERD
One year ago, I knew absolutely nothing about beekeeping.
This video is the origin story of The Honey Herd — how it all started, the mistakes I made, the lessons I learned, and where things are heading next.
It’s an honest reflection rather than a how-to, and probably the most personal video I’ve made so far.
