The Vet gave the entire bee family a clean bill of health yesterday, but just to be on the safe side handed Polly and Billi a disinfectant fumigator for the hive. Apparently there's a lot of Colony Collapse Disease going round, and this should take care of it.
The instructions said to place the fumigator inside the hive, light the fuse, close all the doors and windows and avoid breathing the fumigant smoke.
They enlisted Wilson's help with this, as technically he is the only one old enough to use matches.
Polly moaned about the smoke, saying the entire hive would need redecorating, not just Uncle Zoltan's rooms, but Billi comforted her, saying that a bit of smoke damage was better than catching Colony Collapse Disease.
