went to the apiary this afternoon 7c and foggy, all the hives just ticking over with a few toilet flights
i noticed a wasp walk straight in through the mouseguard!!
14x12 hive still heavy 50lb on a spring balance
so waited and eventual after about ten minute i cuaght one of the wasps
checking on the web it is the german wasp Vespa Germanica, larger than the common wasp
Has anyone else still got wasps attacking, it been down to 0c over night and i would have though the wasp problem would be over, or are German wasps more hardy than the common wasp
i've close the entrance down but still one went in after i had done that, not a swarm of them just about 4 in ten minutes
