Bees In Box Hives, A Kessell
Bees In Box Hives, A Kessell
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 3
The keeping of bees in other than properly appointed hives with standard frames is illegal in Western Australia as such hives make it almost impossible to inspect the swarms in order to check for disease. Nevertheless, beekeepers occasionally encounter swarms which have established themselves or have been established in fruit cases or other types of boxes or containers.
