Feel for you lad. It's worse when you can't work out why it's happened as it just niggles away at you.

Yes close up to keep the mice out. Absconding bees is something I never used to see in the past - but in recent years it seems to have become 'a thing'. In my case I put it down to my non treatment of my colonies. I don't treat any of my colonies and I think (but don't know) that absconding may be part of my bees dealing with the mites.
