You can only alternate the direction of the boxes in symetrical square hives like the National. It won't work with a WBC nor a Langstroth and I am sure there will be others.
I do have customers who says that the (local) honey works. My assumption is that small amounts of pollen in the honey allow the body to get used to it. However my hayfever is from grass pollen, so my honey would be of no use.Steve (The Drone) wrote: ↑29 Apr 2019, 02:43Time for a new myth. Local honey cures local hay fever. I for one certainly foster this story- lots of happy customers. But is it the placebo effect?
One issue is that people think that taking a spoonful will give an instant relief like a drug, however the honey would need to be taken over a long time in order ti build up an immunity to the pollens in it.
