The hot weather of this coming week will be good for the bees. However, you should remember that strong hives need ventilation to cool the hive. For strong hives it is recommended to now completely remove the entrance reducer. This year's new package hives are still growing and their population is probably not yet large enough to cause overheating. The entrance reducer for these hives should oriented so the 4 inch opening is open.
