Cathy and I did a sugar shake yesterday.
Hive1=2
Hive2=2
Hive3=4
Hive4=0 :) :) :)

IPM boards after 24 hours-
Hive1=32
Hive2=35
Hive3=65
Hive4=8

To me it looks like Hives 1,2 and especially 4 are in good shape. Hive 3
looks borderline and I'm wondering if I should go ahead and treat now or wait
until later in the summer when presumably the count will be higher?
