After harvesting the honey the girls made for us, the frames still have a bit of honey on them so we let them pick it dry...
which nets a lot of beeswax! They do an amazing job cleaning up every drop of honey. They have a lot of visitors besides their fellow honeybees. They work hand and hand with yellow jackets, hornets and even flies. It's all done in harmony and is amazing to watch!
We even put the extractor and buckets out there and they cleaned it nice and left a pile of beeswax. We will strain and filter it and get some nice beeswax to make some lip balms and salves!
