Title: Problems With Mouse Guard Or Entrance Reducer On All Year Round?
Post by: Alklar20 on August 06, 2021, 07:43:53 pm

Would there be any problems with keeping a mouse guard or an entrance reducer on a hive all year round?

Only problem might be keeping cool on the hottest days, but other than that, it should be fine. It may slow production down a little during a strong flow if there is congestion at the entrance.
