Last year was our first attempt at bee keeping, and we also had ant problems (as well as terrible drought) We've tried putting the boxes on a table which was inside a baby pool filled with water. Helped quite a bit. Anyone else tried this, or have warnings against it? Thanks in advance! Happy keeping. We are beginners.

Another thought: Would planting Thyme around hives (lots of blossoms!) would repel mites?

They actually made tunnels in the polystyrene. I wonder if borax, sugar and water are the same as boric acid. Is Borax (laundry booster) the same as boric acid?

Mine have all been in the ground close to the beehive. Then I get two kettles full of boiling water and pour it onto the ants' nest. Might need to repeat a few times to get them all, but this works really well and doesn't risk poisoning your bees. I’ve had good luck with following the line of ants back to the nest site.

There is a one inch opening there. I noticed yesturday honey bees very active in that area, coming and going. I have a friend who is very excited about retreiving the bees but he is not a carpenter and I am reluctant to have him do too much demolition to get to the bees. I absolutely want to save the bees even if they just stay where they are. They may just move on soon. This could be a temporary home for them, right?
