Fall syrup 1

Put on the first dose of Fumagilin-B with 2:1 syrup on both hives. I tried to work without a veil. Mistake. I was pursued around the corner of the house after I took off the telescoping cover from the booming hive. The weather was iffy so all the bees were home. Put on a white hockey jersey and my veil and finished with the hives. Much less stressful. It's supposed to rain tonight and part of tomorrow so hopefully they will make short work of the syrup. I will add HopGuard on my next inspection.
