Why we put mouse excluders on our bee hives!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When carrying out our recent winter preparation for the beehives we had a little surprise hiding in the two polynucs. On opening them up, we discovered two mice families.Each mouse family was very warm and cosy and had decided which corner of the nucleus box they were going to the toilet in! Can you see our cheeky friends in the pictures?!
