Is it too hot to fog?? Wouldn't this stress out the bees who are trying to keep the hive temps down??? Should I wait unitl Friday or so when the temps are SUPPOSE to come down a few degress??

Why not do it early morning or late evening, when the foragers are home and it's about 70 degrees? Cool enough and treat more bees at the same time.
