Not the way to smoke your bees.
We had a fire up on the mountain today. Around 100 acers burned. I lost one of my bee yards and my storage building along with most of my beekeeping equipment. No one was hurt and no houses burned.
I opened up the hive that swarmed. I found queen cells, lots of bees but could not find the queen. I split the hive in two and also made a nuc. I left two queen cells in each side of the split plus the nuc. I will check them in a few days. A nuc is a nucleus hive with 5 frames in it. It has everything to make a colony.
