I have had my package installed for a week the bees are pulling pollen in like crazy. They seem to be having to fly outside the entrance waiting to get in. I have my reducer on the smallest hole setting should i change it to the bigger hole setting. I dont have eny robbing taking place there is no fighting go on just seems like they are wating to get in that small hole.

I would take it off. I am sure someone with more experience can verify that.

Put it on the larger setting. Check again in an hour. If they are still waiting to get in, remove it completely.
