Lost one of my hives today!
I guess when the hive got robbed several weeks ago, it put too big of a stain on the colony.
When I opened the hive today there were just a hand full of bees and most of the frames were filled with wax moths!
I disassembled the hive and got rid of all the wax foundations.
I still have one strong hive left. I've been feeding it syrup and the brood seems healthy.
Hopefully it will winter well.
