Having a sort out in the apiary and the current paynes hives are sat on two large wooden sleepers but there isn't much air circulation up into the OMF as the sleepers dont have a gap between them ... so unlike a stand I wonder how much air flow there is (tbh they have been happy enough there for 3 years but hey .. time for a rethink)
Was thinking of putting them on a pallet instead as they might get more air that way ?
Or can I put the floors directly on concrete slabs and the design of the floors is to allow air to get in under the OMF anyway ?
Any thoughts ?
