In your sapiens hive do you have trouble with ants in the closet?

[@grahamsanders9970]

I have had no problens, BUT its a possibility I guess.

[@willwallace4979]

No I don’t live in North Queensland now down in nsw

[@willwallace4979]

Born in Carins !!!!!!!!!!

[@grahamsanders9970]

So if born in Cairns you have seen them, -- do you still live in the North, and do you have native bees.

[@loislangley2975]

Hi Graham, How do I work out what bees I have? They are in a log and are very shy. They have white faces and black bodies. I am not good enough to get a clear photo. They came from Karrara which is south of Warwick.

[@grahamsanders9970]

Well I would guess either carbonaria or Australis. Carbonaria will have resins all over the entrance, while Australis will close there entrance each night for protection.

[@loislangley2975]

@@grahamsanders9970 Thank you Graham, the entrance is prophesied or waxed shut, so they must be Australia.

[@loislangley2975]

What size for the boxes for hive and thickness of wood?

[@loislangley2975]

I mean propilised and Australia.
