" If you see cells in the hive if the hive as a strong population lots of solid brood, and the hive has brood of all ages including eggs, it is a good sign that the bees are not superseding.ir the queen is still actively laying I will tear down or remove every cell in the hive."
apis, have you kept russian bees? if the russian queen is laying and there are solid brood patterns i don't concern myself with removing or tearing any queen cells down. they will just rebuild them.
