How to light a smoker?
Ensure you have a good combustible base. First place a wad of paper/dried leaves/pine needles (and optionally a smoke block) in the smoker and light it to create an open flame, which you can grow using the bellows. Carefully smother this substantial flame with tobacco (or smoke pellets). Continue pumping well with the bellows at the beginning. Especially for smoke pellets, you need a really good fire to start. Then close the lid and pump regularly to keep the smoker going. The goal is to produce ample amounts of cool, white smoke. Don't use blue smoke, which is too hot and can cause irritation and scorch the wings of the bees. The herbal tobacco / smoke blocks work a bit easier for beginning beekeepers.
