Whats The Lowest Temperature At Which Bee-Quick Is Effective?
We do not know the exact temperature, but we suspect that you are worrying about the wrong temperature. The outside air temperature really does not matter on a sunny day. If you have painted the metal top of your fume board black, it will heat up to an acceptable temperature even on days that are “too cold for bees to fly”. If the day is cool and cloudy, you can use a breeze board and get better results than you would with a fume board. Obviously, it would be a very bad idea to harvest honey when it is too cold for bees to fly unless you plan on brushing the “stubborn” bees directly onto the hive landing board.
