My bee-keeping Ma has told me to reckon on an afternoon once a fortnight or so during the summer.

That does seem to be the way a lot of the beekeepers round here do it. I used to do that before I became sensitive to the stings, so we go for a low intervention method now. I think either method works, just whatever is best for you and your bees really

Yes - I'm sure that we'll work out the best way for us as we go along. Reassuring to know that they don't NEED fortnightly intervention, thanks Sally.
