Hi Adam, the mesh is to keep the bees in place, they have kingspan on top of the crown boards. When I need to feed it is easy to slide the mesh across and put feed over the hole.

I suspected that would be the case - any new beekepers lurking might have not known about the kingspan on the top and thought that you left the top open for ventillation, hence the question.

Good point Adam, too much ventilation sucks !
