(Andrea)

   In the winter months, as soon as I think my beehive is full of bees and honey, I am in the mood to check all my bee equipment, replace and renovate them. I want to get all my equipment ready so that I can start at the peak of the Spring Festival transportation. All my bee boxes, super boxes and deep boxes, bases, grooved racks, inner and outer covers, eliminators and frames have been carefully inspected. I will not hesitate to throw away the outdated things. But for the rest, I renovated it for a few more seasons.

Step 1: Check and freeze

   First, cover the whole working area with kraft paper or plastic waterproof cloth to facilitate cleaning. Remove the beehive, put all the old pull frames in the big refrigerator for at least 24 hours, and then clean them. This can kill pests at all stages, such as the wax moth.

Step 2: Wood hardener or discard

   Apply wood hardener to any soft spots to protect the wood from further decay. If that place is too bad, leave a hole in your beehive and throw it away! The hole leads to a new entrance that encourages robbery.

Step 3: Scratch

   Yes, bees will coat everything with wax and propolis. You need to scrape it off with your hive tool, so that your boxes can be tightly combined. I scrape all the excess wax into a pile, clean it and melt it in my crockpot for later use. Special care should be taken when cleaning the inner corners of the box and the frame slide rails, as they provide ideal corners and gaps that may harbor pests and pathogens. It is a good idea to remove the old frame rails and replace them with new ones. To clean your box, you can even take a propane torch and run it around the inside of the hive, which will make it dark brown. But be careful not to let your hives catch fire!

Step 4: Paint

   Paint the exterior with primer and one or two coats of paint, not the interior. If it has been painted, please give the box an extra coat. Paint will certainly prolong the service life of your equipment.

Step 5: Storage

   Any frame with honey on it is called wet frame. I store them in the refrigerator so that they can be taken out at any time when I need to feed bees in spring. If I draw combs or dry frames, I will store them in my potted plant shed and stack the boxes at a 90 degree angle to let light in, because wax moths don't like light. I also put a mousetrap around any wax comb, because rats will nest in the frame and wreak havoc. I often check the frames I keep to make sure the wax moth doesn't start invading.

1、 Closer to nature

   Chinese bees have very strict requirements on the nesting environment. Most Chinese bees that live in nature build their nests in tree holes and stone crevices that are rarely seen by people. From this point of view, barrel beekeeping has the advantage of being closer to nature. Creating a wild environment for Chinese bees artificially is more conducive to the survival and reproduction of bees. Moreover, Chinese bees raised in this kind of simulated wild environment are not easy to escape

2、 Spleen making is more free

   The nest spleen is generally rectangular when the live frame hive is used for beekeeping. However, in the natural environment, the nest spleen is actually semicircular, and all the nests and spleens are hemispherical as a whole. On the surface, there is no essential difference between rectangular and semicircular nests and spleens. In fact, it is precisely this honeycomb structure that is hemispherical as a whole and semicircular as a single spleen that enables Chinese bees to survive and reproduce in harsh environments.

3、 Not conducive to management

   The biggest disadvantage of bucket beekeeping is that it is not easy to manage. For example, it is difficult to determine when the bees will be separated during the bee separation period, while the development of the queen stage in the live frame beehive is clear at a glance. In addition, it is very difficult to manually separate bees for bucket beekeeping. In this regard, the live frame beehive is very simple. In addition, it is also difficult to deal with pests and diseases when bucket beekeeping occurs, and sometimes it is completely self destructive.

4、 Hurt bees while taking honey

   Wooden barrel beekeeping is also a big trouble in obtaining honey. The general process of obtaining honey is to use smoke to drive bees away from the spleen and then cut the honey spleen. However, bees have the habit of storing honey and rearing insects on the same spleen, that is to say, there are both honey and larvae on a spleen, and honey is basically in the upper part of the nest spleen. To extract honey, the whole nest spleen must be cut off. As a result, half of the larvae will be killed or injured by taking honey once.

5、 Low output

   The annual honey yield of barrel beekeeping is very low, because every time you take honey, it will cause great harm to the bees. Therefore, you can only take honey once a year. Taking honey for many times will not improve the yield, but will weaken the colony and even fly away. However, there is no such limit when using movable frame beekeeping. As long as there is mature honey on the comb spleen, you can cut the honey.

   Conclusion: Barrel beekeeping is the inheritance of thousands of years of beekeeping history in China. The advantage is that the living environment of bee colonies is closer to nature. The disadvantage is that it is not conducive to the management of bee colonies and is easy to hurt bees when taking honey. Therefore, we suggest that we try to use live frame beehives for beekeeping when developing bee breeding.

    Propolis powder, as the name implies, is a powdered propolis product, which is made of pure propolis (98%) extracted from the original propolis at low temperature, crushed at low temperature, added with edible and medical raw materials.

Manufacturing process of bee propolis powder

   Propolis powder is produced by using modern technology to dry the wax free purified propolis flow extract with hot air. The dried propolis block is crushed, sieved, and then added with ultra-fine silica as an anticoagulant to propolis! The main ingredients are purified propolis and silica. The particle size of propolis powder and the content of purified propolis can be controlled from 30-80%, and different accessories can also be prepared according to customer requirements!

Product application of bee propolis powder

    Propolis powder is one of the most ideal products for food, medicine and daily chemical enterprises because it does not contain wax and silica, is well dispersed, does not coagulate, and is easy to preserve, transport and use.

• Food: At present, the health food industry is booming, and the efficacy of propolis powder is also widely known, so 30% - 90% of propolis tablets, propolis capsules, propolis liquid, propolis tincture and a series of health food are used!
• Medicine: everyone is familiar with propolis, so it plays a very good role in improving immunity, preventing cancer, anti-oxidation, protecting liver, lowering blood fat, lowering blood sugar, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, anti-virus, various skin diseases, digestive and urinary system diseases, bronchitis, anti-tumor, oral ulcer, etc!
• Daily chemicals: The effective substances in propolis, such as flavonoids, flavonols, terpenes, enzymes, vitamins, polyphenols, polysaccharides, resins, and organic acids, are widely used in antibacterial and anti-inflammatory toothpastes, antibacterial soaps, cosmetics, and other fields.

Efficacy and function of propolis powder

1. Antibacterial

   Propolis powder has many functions. First, propolis powder can promote tissue regeneration. At the same time, propolis powder also has a good tumor effect. Many people believe that propolis powder has better anti-inflammatory effect than antibiotics. At the same time, propolis powder has good antiseptic effect. Propolis powder can be used to treat oral diseases and gastric ulcers. It is a good anti-cancer health product. At the same time, for some chemotherapy patients, it can also relieve people's pain.

2. Reduce cholesterol

   Another function of propolis powder is that propolis powder is rich in nutrients, such as flavonoids, a large number of vitamins and trace elements, which can reduce people's cholesterol, especially propolis powder is very beneficial to middle-aged and elderly people.

3. Reduce menopausal symptoms

   Many people enter menopause, there will be some symptoms of menopause discomfort. After taking propolis powder, these menopausal discomfort symptoms can be alleviated.

4. Enhance immunity

   Propolis powder can promote the growth of human immune cells, expand the resistance to viral infection, so people often eat propolis powder can make the body better.

5. Beauty

   Propolis powder can decompose human pigment and help people eliminate color spots. At the same time, propolis powder can effectively eliminate wrinkles. Eating propolis regularly will make you more beautiful.

matters needing attention

   The quality and price of propolis powder are related to the content of purified propolis and the fine size of the powder!

Bee farms and bee species

   The site selection of bee farms is very important for both Italian bees and Chinese bees. There should be enough honey and clean water near the bee farm to meet the requirements of bee collection and nesting. Transportation is also very important. Whether it is the transfer of bee farmers or the purchase of bee products or the needs of bee farmers in their daily life, convenient transportation is indispensable. However, it should be noted that the surrounding environment should be quiet on the basis of taking into account all conditions, and there are many other requirements. I have introduced them separately in detail before, so you can go and have a look.

    In addition, the bee species must be suitable. Chinese bees have strong adaptability and are good at using sporadic honey sources, but they are grumpy and produce less honey; The output of honey and royal jelly of Italian bee is relatively high, but it needs to chase flowers and honey, and its disease resistance is not as good as that of Chinese bee. Whether to breed Chinese bees or Italian bees can be determined according to the specific local conditions and honey source conditions. For example, sporadic honey sources in mountainous areas are more suitable for breeding Chinese bees.

Queen bee and colony potential

   As the saying goes, "A good queen has a thousand kilos of honey." The queen bee is the basis for the development of the bee colony. It can be said that the colony bred by a high-quality queen bee has advantages in all aspects. High quality queen bees can be introduced from local bee farms, and can also be cultivated by using the excellent population of this bee farm. I have also explained in detail how to select and cultivate high-quality queen bees before. In addition to the queen bee, the colony is strong. A strong colony will have better egg laying ability, bee collecting ability, or disease resistance ability. Therefore, bee keeping beginners should avoid frequent bee separation for the sake of group number.

Feed and pests

   In addition to collecting honey and flour by bees themselves, bees need to be fed in many cases. Therefore, beekeepers must leave enough food for bees during the honey shortage period, and do not over shake honey. In addition to honey water, honey bees can also be fed with sugar water, bee pollen and other feeds. Beginners should pay attention to learning the feeding methods of bees. Bee farmers also worry about diseases and pests. If they do not deal with them in time, they may fall short. Therefore, they should pay attention to the prevention and control of diseases and pests, keep the hive clean and disinfected, pay attention to the use of bee medicine, and pay attention to wasps, ants and other enemies.

   What I share with you today is an entry-level experience. Although the knowledge of beekeeping is very complex, it is no longer difficult to learn from it after you get started. As for beekeeping, if you still have experience you want to share, you can leave a message in the comment area and share it with everyone.

    In my opinion, we need to learn to solve the problem of being stung by bees, but learning to avoid being stung by bees is even more a problem. How can we avoid being stung by bees? In fact, we should pay attention to the following points. There are few chances of being stung by bees.

    The first is to break a habit. Some friends think they are old beekeepers. When they enter the bee farm, they don't need any bee hats and jackets. They just open the box to check when they enter the bee farm. not bad You can do this when you know about bees, but there are many reasons why bees sting people. Even experienced beekeepers may not be able to fully understand. For example, when opening the box for inspection, the bees were irritated by being too rude, standing at the entrance of the nest to block the way for bees to get in and out, and killing bees when handling the bees. Especially when placing the stepbox, many of our friends made the bees squeak. Later, we can see a thick layer of compressed bee bodies between the main box and the stepbox. These methods will obviously attract bees to sting.

    The second smell and color are usually ignored by beekeepers. Bees are sensitive insects. They are quite sensitive to many smells and colors. Although many of our bee keeping friends have known bees well, they are still unavoidably irritated. These behaviors are mainly reflected in clothing color, sweat smell, wine smell, garlic smell, perfume smell, etc. These are all things that we tend to neglect in the process of beekeeping, so we should protect ourselves even if we have enough experience.

    The third time is wrong. For example, in the low temperature or honey shortage period, check the bee colony and bees for mild pesticide poisoning. At this time, the bees are on alert. If the bees are affected for a long time, they will naturally become angry. It is inevitable that they will be stung. Under these circumstances, we should protect ourselves. In fact, with complete protection measures, we don't worry about being stung by bees at all, but many friends may find a problem, that is, even if we wear protective clothing, we still feel a sense of fear when angry bees rush to us, then how can we avoid contact with angry bees? In fact, the method is very simple. For this kind of bee colony, we only need to smoke the bee colony first when we open the box for inspection.

    The beekeeper's first line of defense against sting is the bee smoker. Bees receive smoke signals and begin to prepare for a hive fire. They begin to consume honey as quickly as possible, so that when they are ready to move the bees from the "burning" hive, they will have enough nutrition. Excessive honey will make bees fall into a food coma, and they become drowsy and less aggressive. Whenever you work with bees, it is important to use a smoke blower. This not only protects you, it also protects the hive.

    It seems that these are all preventive measures, but what if we accidentally encounter a group of angry bees without protection? When we find that bees are flying around us and have been stung, many friends habitually pat their own bees, which will only make the bees more crazy. The correct way is to force calm and exit slowly. You can also take off your clothes and wrap your head in the process of exiting, and then head into the woods. In addition to the above encirclement, there are also cases of being chased. Should we run or stand still when being chased? It is good if you can exit slowly, but if the bees chase too hard and we have already run, don't run straight. Your two legs can't beat the wings of bees. The correct way is to turn the corner and run around the corner, so that a turn like this can shake off some bees, and finally all of them will be shaken off. Now that we have the means of prevention and escape, what if we are still stung? In fact, for many friends, being stung for a few times does not harm them. The most important thing is to make friends and relatives laugh for a few days. After two or three days, it will naturally disappear. As long as it is not allergic, bee venom is good for the human body, except for the pain at that time and the ugliness later. What if we are allergic? In fact, don't worry too much. As long as the sting is not too serious, we can usually solve it through the following methods. When you are stung, scrape out the sting needle with your fingernail, and then wash it with soapy water. If you don't even have soap, spitting out saliva to apply it has some effect, but if you have serious discomfort, you should go to a doctor immediately.

    The above is about the practice of swarms attacking themselves in anger and the precautions when facing swarms. Generally speaking, they are novices when they are stung by bees. However, if they are stung frequently, they should consider whether they are correct when facing bees. I hope that the above contents can help the vast number of beekeepers.

1. Hunger prevention: whether the feed in the whole wintering period is of high quality and sufficient quality is related to the success of the honeybee wintering. High quality feed can ensure that most of the bees can be digested after eating, and the honeybee colony will be quiet and stable, have a long life, not fade in spring, and reproduce quickly in spring; If the feed quality is poor, the bees will digest less after eating, resulting in more residue. If the feces are depressed in the intestines, it is easy to form belly disease. Some of the mild cases will die, and a large number of bees will die.

2. Heat prevention: The suitable temperature for honeybees to overwinter is 2-8 ℃. The honeybees in dormant state gather together and rely on honey storage to maintain their life. However, there are many days when the temperature is above 8 ℃ throughout the winter. The honeybees have a large amount of activity, a lot of feed consumption, workers are aging fast, and are not easy to reproduce in spring. Therefore, to prevent heat, ventilation, watering, or electric fans can be used to cool down.

3. Cold prevention: during the winter, the activity of bees will also increase when the temperature is below - 2 ℃, mainly to increase their food intake, keep swinging their bellies, and generate heat energy to resist the cold, which not only consumes a lot of feed but also shortens the life of worker bees; If there are small bees, they can bask in the sun during the day. At night, they should close the nest door as small as possible to fill the gaps in the box and wind tunnel to prevent cold current from invading the gaps.

4. Anti dryness: Spray water properly in the bee farm to increase humidity and prevent dryness, so as to prevent bees from thirsty and feed drying and crystallization. After all, bees have no teeth, and the feed will not be available after the crystallization becomes hard.

5. Damp proof: During the winter, the humidity in the hive is 70% - 80%, and the feed with humidity above 80% is easy to become damp, thin and deteriorated. If the bees are easy to get sick and have diarrhea after eating, etc; If the humidity in the hive is relatively high, a layer of plastic film should be placed under the hive, or some quicklime and dry slag should be spread around the hive, or the bees can be allowed to fly and excrete in a planned way in sunny days above 10 ℃.

6. Light proof: bees like dark environments. If they are stimulated to fly away from their nests by strong external light, outdoor hives should be covered with light proof cloth to avoid light, so as to minimize the energy consumption of bees when flying in the air.

7. Prevention of stuffiness: There must be fresh air when bees are wintering in the hive. It is necessary to prevent dead bees and sundries from blocking the hive door, leading to suffocation of bees. It is also necessary to prevent snow from closing the hive door. Therefore, it is necessary to check the external conditions of the hive every day.

8. Shockproof: Bees prefer a quiet environment and are afraid of vibration and noise. In particular, they are weak in the late winter, and feces in their abdomen are intolerable. If they are frightened by vibration, they often suffer from spleen dropping and freeze to death. Therefore, they should keep quiet in the bee farm to avoid loud noises, such as setting off firecrackers and making loud noises.

9. Disease prevention: keep the hive clean and sanitary, and pay attention to disinfection to prevent the occurrence of diseases and pests such as bee mites.

10. Enemy prevention: If the protective measures are not in place during the winter, rats will bite the hive, steal honey and destroy the nest spleen. If there is any sign of mouse activity in the bee farm, poison bait and equipment can be used to kill it.

   Beekeeping is considered as an agricultural activity. People domesticate bees to produce honey. Beekeeping is effective and efficient for income generation and can bring economic relief to the whole community. However, for a successful beekeeping project, beekeepers need the necessary tools and equipment. This article introduces various tools and equipment for beekeeping and the purpose for beekeepers to use them.

   The main supplies needed by beekeepers to collect honey include a complete set of beekeeping tools, beehive tools, smoke sprayers, bee brushes, filter screens, honey collectors and honey storage tanks.

Beekeeping equipment Honey extractor

   The honey extractor is a device for extracting honey from a honeycomb. The honey extractor extracts honey from the honeycomb without destroying the honeycomb. In this way, the wax nest is kept intact within the framework and can be reused by bees. Beekeepers found that honey extraction is the central processing point of beekeeping; This is a process of removing honey from the honeycomb, separating pure honey in liquid form from the honeycomb. Beekeepers can squeeze honey from the comb, but this will destroy the precious reusable drawn comb; This is why the equipment (honey extractor) is very important.

Beekeeping clothes

   For novice beekeepers, safety is your most important concern. Therefore, one of the most important aspects you need when harvesting is beekeeping clothes. As the face and neck are the most vulnerable parts of the human body, hats and veils are the most important parts of the beekeeping clothing. A good beekeeping suit can provide adequate protection for bee stings and protect beekeepers from bee venom. A complete beekeeping set includes a lightweight full-length jumpsuit with hood and veil, and gloves. Although some beekeepers feel it is too troublesome to wear gloves when performing delicate bee keeping tasks, gloves are an important part of protecting the hands of beekeepers when collecting honey. Bees don't like wool or rough fabrics, so keep them smooth. In addition, stay away from any oily or animal smelling materials that may attract swarms of bees. Make sure your suit is completely covered and any gaps are sealed. It is also a good idea to choose only thick materials that do not overheat but are thick enough to withstand bee stings.

Beekeeping Bee Smoker

   This is an important honey gathering device, especially when you want to avoid being stung by angry bees. Beekeepers use "smoke sprayers" to calm bees and harvest honey. Smoke dulls their receptors and prevents guard bees from releasing warning signals, pheromones. It basically disorients the bees, causing them to retreat to the depths of the hive. With only a few bees around the frame, the process of collecting honey becomes easier. The smoke also made them eat more honey, which made them more relieved! Smoke blowers are designed to emit smoke by using a variety of fuels. Many different natural fuels can be used, including burlap, twine, burlap, pine needles, corrugated cardboard or rotten wood.

Honey filter

   After using the honey extractor, you are ready to pack honey. However, you need to remove all impurities before pouring honey into the jar and putting your own label on it. The easiest way is to use a honey filter. You can use ordinary kitchen filters, but I suggest you use professional honey filters. An effective honey filter separates impurities from the honey, such as sawdust, bee parts, wax, and any other unwanted particles. After pouring honey into the filter, you will get pure and clear honey.

Beekeeping brush

   The bee brush is often recommended to new beekeepers. The brush is used to remove bees from the hive during harvest. It is also used for other purposes, such as queen bee breeding. The bee brush is an essential tool because it gently removes bees from the frame without killing them. The brush is usually made of soft hair and is specially designed to kill bees without causing any harm. During honey gathering, you need to scan every frame with a bee brush, and then put it into the extractor. This is a job that needs to be careful. If you have a lot of bees, it may be time-consuming. The key is to use a brush to carefully remove the bees from the frame and place the frame in a way that the bees will not tangle or break their legs in the process.

Apicultural Lid Opener

   The cap opener is used for clean and fast cutting on the wax cap on the honeycomb. The wax cap usually forms a gas tight seal around the cells containing honey, making it very difficult to extract honey. With the electric lid opener, you can easily remove the lid on the honeycomb and extract honey. Another alternative to the electric cap opener is the serrated edge or serrated knife. Before use, ensure that the cap opener is clean, hot and dry to simulate the effect of the electric cap opener. To make it hot, soak it in hot water and dry it with a clean cloth before use. Please remember that you do not want to be polluted, so you must ensure that the cap opener is clean and free of rust.

Apicultural lid opening fork

    Another essential and useful honey harvesting device is the lid opening fork. The cap opening fork is used to scrape off the bottle cap missed by the cap opening knife. This is a good tool for scraping off the hard cap on the honeycomb. You can use it instead of a lid opener, or just to pry the indomitable cells that your knife cannot open. Either way, it works well every time!

Honey storage bottle or jar

   Another important honey collecting appliance is the honey storage bottle. You need to store the harvested honey in a sealed jar with a lid. Pots made of durable materials. Food grade plastic or glass is the first choice for many beekeepers. Whichever option you make, it keeps the lid of the container tightly closed.

   Although you have your honey storage container and all the proper beekeeper accessories, are you familiar with the honey harvesting process? Knowing when and how to harvest honey is the key to successful beekeeping, but this is easier said than done, especially for novice beekeepers.

   A simple fact is that the window for perfect honey collection is very narrow. If you harvest too early, you may harvest uncured nectar instead of honey, which will deteriorate. However, if the harvest is too late, you will risk that the honey is too thick to harvest. Even if you perfectly arrange the harvest time, how you harvest is still a small problem.

   Let's learn when and how to harvest honey!

When is the best time to collect honey?

   Generally speaking, the best time to harvest honey in Australia is from February to March, because the flow of nectar gradually decreases in summer. You can determine the perfect harvest time by paying attention to the following factors:

1. Check your hive frequently

   The best tool in any beekeeping kit is simple observation. As summer approaches, put on your safety armor, check your hive every two to three weeks, and pay attention to at least 80% of the sealed frames. Once the last major nectar flow in the summer ends, bees will begin to consume more honey than they produce. In other words, your employees will be busy enjoying the fruits of their own labor and will not let you get more products!

2. Be patient with your bees

   A complete beehive does not necessarily mean that honey is ready to be harvested. Before your honey becomes honey, your bees must first flap the hive with their wings to speed up the evaporation process, so as to dehydrate the harvested nectar. Once the nectar thickens into honey, the bees seal it with beeswax. Only in this way can honey be harvested.

   To avoid early harvest, take the frames out of the beekeeping area and put them face down and shake them gently. If honey drips from the honeycomb, the bees have not sealed it, which means that they have not completed the process, which means that it is not ready.

3. Learn your beekeeping details

   By familiarizing yourself with the basic principles of honeycombs, your honey harvest will become easier. Your area will determine the climate that affects your bee farm. In cooler areas, especially in the South Island, you need to leave more honey in the hive to let your bees survive in winter. This climate may also affect the local flora pollinated by bees, which will affect the taste and consistency of honey.

How do I harvest honey?

   Once you know the time is right to harvest honey, the appropriate technology will provide you with as much of the best canned honey as possible. The following is a step-by-step procedure for harvesting honey:

• 1. When opening the hive, please use a smoke blower to keep the bees warm.
• 2. Use the honeycomb tool to pry the frame loose, because your bees will try to seal them in place with some strengthening wax. If the frame contains at least 80% of the capping honeycomb, a soft bristle brush or a mild hair dryer can be used to remove the bees.
• 3. Cover the frame with traps or sheets to prevent bees from reproducing on it, and isolate it indoors before harvesting.
• 4. Cover opener or scraper can be used to remove the top wax of sealing honeycomb.
• 5. After the honey is unsealed, the extractor uses centrifugal force to separate the honey from the honeycomb. The extractor is available in both electric and manual versions, allowing separated honey to collect in their pots, where it can be discharged through the honey door.
• 6. After separation, you need to filter the honey through the sieve to remove the last bit of wax.
• 7. Once you filter your honey, you can jar it and enjoy it!

   With a little practice, you will become a honey expert!

   It takes time to understand your bees and bee farms, but after several harvests, you will have a deep understanding of when your frame is suitable for harvesting and the appearance and taste of your honey.

    At the beginning of the last century, living frame beehives and Italian bees were introduced into China together. Now, there are many beehives used in China, such as ten frame beehives, Dadan beehives, twelve frame square beehives, etc. Their specifications and sizes are different, but their structural principles are basically the same. Beginner beekeepers can buy beehives used by others from beekeepers, or make their own beehives according to specifications.

Design basis of beehive

• 1. Bee path: Bee path refers to the space for bees to pass through and circulate air in the hive. In the beehive, that is, the gap between the nest frame and the nest frame, and between the nest frame and other parts of the beehive. Bee routes shall be determined according to the habits of different bee species and by measuring the natural honeycombs of bees.The modern standard beehive of western honeybees is commonly used, and the bee route is composed of inter frame bee route, front and rear bee route, up bee route and down bee route. The individual size of Chinese honeybee is slightly smaller than that of western honeybee, and the bee path is slightly lower than that of western honeybee.
• 2. Nest frame: Nest frame is an important part of the beehive, which is composed of upper beam, lower beam and side strip. It is used to support, fix and protect the nest spleen. Its shape, size and number play a decisive role in the design of the beehive.

Fabrication requirements of beehive

• 1. The wood for making beehives should be strong, durable, light and not easy to deform and crack. In the north, white pine, red pine, tung wood and basswood are better. Chinese fir can be used in the south. The wood shall be fully air dried or dried before fabrication.
• 2. The four walls of the box body should preferably be made of a single piece of wood. If smaller boards are used for splicing, it is better to use convex concave surface or staggered joint at the splicing point for bonding. When the former is used, the plate with convex surface is placed below and the plate with concave surface is placed above. When the latter is used. The upper plate shall be finished. In order to avoid long rainy days, the rain will leak out of the box and affect its service life.
• 3. The outer wall of the beehive shall be planed as much as possible.
• 4. When making beehives, all parts and sizes shall comply with the current national or relevant department standards. The specification and size shall be accurate and consistent.
• 5. The joints (sockets) between the side walls and the front and rear walls of the beehive must be made tightly and firmly to avoid looseness and deformation during use. When the side walls are connected with the front and rear walls, the joints on the adjacent two walls shall be staggered up and down. The two joints shall not be connected at the same level to ensure the fastness of the box.
• 6. The surface of the beehive can be painted with white paint or tung oil to make the beehive durable, warm and damp.

Queen nurturing time

   The breeding time of the queen bee is different due to the different climatic conditions and the distribution of nectar source plants in the country, and the breeding time of the queen bee is also different. Generally, queen bees are cultivated in spring and autumn, because the external nectar source is abundant and the climate is suitable in these two seasons, and the quality of queen bee cultivation and the success rate of mating are also high.

Queen selection

   According to the local nectar source and climatic conditions, the seed king can purchase a suitable seed king from the local bee farm unit, or select a suitable bee colony from the bee farm as the queen breeding colony. The bee colony with excellent performance in the bee farm is used as the basic colony for breeding queen bees.In the process of production and breeding of queen bee, the colony with strong collection ability, cold resistance, heat resistance and disease resistance is selected as the seed colony to achieve the goal of cultivating high-quality queen bee.

Drone Breeding

   The quantity and quality of male peaks directly affect the quality of mating with the queen bee, so bee colonies with strong fecundity, high enthusiasm for collection, and weak separation of bees should be selected to cultivate male bees. And because the male peak is 17 days later than the queen bee's sexual maturity, we have to breed the queen bee earlier; considering that there are enough male peaks to mate with the queen bee, we have to advance this time by a week, that is, in our Drone breeding begins on the 24th day before the official king breeding.

Queen's tool

   Some necessary tools need to be prepared in the artificial breeding of queen bee. They are used to store the "breeding box" for breeding queen bee. The "beeswax" for making the royal platform is similar to the royal platform that we cover; Put the larvae into the "insect removing needle" in the prepared royal table, and prepare a stick as big as chopsticks for making the royal table of bee queen.

Larvae selection

   The smaller the larvae used in artificial queen rearing, the better. The main reason is that the smaller the larvae are, the longer they will be nurtured by worker bees, and the healthier they will be. In this way, the quality of the queen bee will be better. Generally, the larvae used by beekeepers are 1 to 3 day old larvae. Generally speaking, one day old larvae are the best choice, but most beekeepers use three day old larvae.

   Why is this? The worker bees start to secrete royal jelly for the larvae, which is a prerequisite for us to migrate. However, there is not much royal jel ly in the nest during the one day old larvae, so the possibility of successful migration is not high. Therefore, three day old larvae are widely used.

Migration method

   First, select the right age larvae, then gently insert them from the back of the larvae with a migration needle, then gently pick them out, and then put the larvae into the prepared cell cup. If you fail to remove this worm at one time, do not remove this one, just move another worm. If you fail to remove this worm at one time, you will have already injured it.

Swarm management

   After adding the queen rearing box of the migratory insects to the queen rearing group, they will be rewarded and fed continuously in the evening. Check whether the larvae are accepted the next day. For the larvae that have been accepted, the royal platform is raised, the royal jelly in the royal platform is increased, and the larvae float on the royal jelly; 

   If they are not accepted, their king's platform will be damaged and there will be no larvae in it. If no king group is used to breed a king, then the king raising box is transferred to the stepbox of the king raising group, and the king raising group without king is merged with the original group. If there is a king to breed a king, check the situation when the king platform is closed on the sixth day, and eliminate the small and skewed king platform. Count the number of available Wangtai, so as to organize the mating group with the required number.

environment condition

   In terms of environmental conditions, we can classify them in detail, including honey source conditions, climate conditions and nearby environment. Let's take a look at the requirements of these three conditions respectively.

    First: honey source conditions

   Because bees need to live in places with many honey sources, one is to eat, the other is to store and feed young bees, so this condition is considered important by the bee tribe. As far as honey sources are concerned, the bee tribe believes that there should be at least two big honey sources and rich small honey sources in a year. Under the conditions that these two conditions are met, the problem of honey sources can be basically solved.

    Second: climatic conditions

   In fact, bees are more suitable for living in places that are neither hot nor cold. However, it is difficult to find such places because of the great climate difference in China. Therefore, from the perspective of climate conditions, we mainly choose places with short winters and mild climates throughout the year. It is better not to spend more than a month or two in winter, otherwise it is more demanding for our beekeepers.

    Third: Nearby environment

   The surrounding environment includes whether the water source is clean, whether there is pollution such as factories, whether there is molasses factory nearby, whether the bee farm is on the mountain of the mine, whether the magnetic field of some mines is large, which affects the positioning of bees, and whether there are places under high-voltage lines and so on, which are not suitable for raising bees. At the same time, we should also pay attention to the placement of bees, and follow the habits of bees.

Bee conditions

   From the perspective of bee conditions, the bee tribe divides these conditions into two categories, mainly including bee species and excellent and benign bees.

    First: bee species

   Because the honeybees raised now mainly include Chinese honeybees and Western honeybees, and the honeybees in different regions also have different habits, the bee products produced by different bee species are not completely the same. So when we are preparing for beekeeping, we should also pay attention to the selection of bee species, and determine whether our local conditions are suitable for breeding a certain kind of bee species, and whether they are suitable for chasing flowers for honey. In fact, the bee tribe thinks that it is mainly considered whether they are suitable for chasing flowers for honey. 

   If the climate is good, and the conditions for chasing flowers for honey are also available, it is better to breed Italian bees, and if they are only cultivated in a certain place, it is better to breed Chinese bees. From the perspective of bee habits, it is recommended to use local bee species, which is more suitable for the local climate conditions. If we choose Italian bee, we'd better make a preliminary survey of Italian bee. After all, it is an exotic bee species, and not every region is suitable for breeding, and not all beekeepers have the conditions to pursue flowers and obtain honey.

    Second: the excellent characteristics of bees

   From the perspective of the excellent characteristics of bees, because there are bee species that are directionally bred in breeding farms, such as hybrid species with strong honey gathering ability and strong pulp production ability, we can see whether they are suitable for the directional hybrid queen bee bred in some breeding farms according to the local climate conditions, or they can be bred through long-term breeding in the process of their own breeding.

Breeding technology

   As for the breeding technology, the bee tribe thinks that the key technologies to master include feeding technology, king rearing technology, bee separation technology, clustering technology, prevention and control technology of common bee diseases and pests, autumn breeding technology, winter breeding technology, spring breeding technology, and summer breeding technology. If we can master these technologies and keep learning, we will soon have a more systematic understanding of bee breeding, In order to designate their own effective and feasible breeding plan, so as to embark on the road of beekeeping.

matters needing attention

   As far as precautions are concerned, the bee tribe believes that feeding, gluttony and blind treatment are the key aspects. Some friends believe that bees do not need to be fed, and they do not feed even in the honey shortage period, leading to the death of bees; Greed is also a common phenomenon in beekeeping. Some friends keep dividing bees, which leads to the colony becoming weaker and weaker. Finally, only a few bees remain, and the colony suffers from various pests and diseases. Finally, the breeding fails; Blind treatment is also a serious problem in bee breeding. Some friends can use drugs at will and in large quantities as long as they see some changes in bees, but the specific reasons are not clear. At last, it is a very simple problem to treat all bees alive. There are many people around the bee tribe, especially Italian bees. Some friends treat all bees in the whole bee farm at one time and kill all bees at one time.

   At present, there are no corresponding measures to encourage beekeeping in our cities. If the beekeeping site is not properly selected, it is easy to cause complaints from neighbors. Because people who do not know about bees are afraid of bees, but it is not impossible to keep bees. As long as you find a more hidden place, it will not affect or interfere with the normal life of others, and no one complains, it is also OK to keep bees. If you own an area and there are few people nearby, whether it's a yard or a roof, then this is a good place for beekeeping.

   Of course, if there is no such area as mentioned above, even if there is a balcony that can be freely controlled, but only if it can not affect others, and no one can complain. After all, it is not particularly pleasant to be stung by bees. Beekeepers who are often stung may feel less painful, but others who have not been stung are more uncomfortable.

   For urban beekeeping, it is better to have an independent small house or villa, and there is no house nearby. This is the best choice and the best beekeeping area. How far should this place be from the residential area? In my opinion, it is better to live within 100 meters without a large population. If this condition is not met, at least there will be no large population living within 50 meters. In addition, our beekeeping place cannot face the place with too bright light at night. It can be said that this is the best choice for urban beekeeping.

Conditions of beekeeping in urban balconies

• 1. The floor should not be too high: bees are small, and they are greatly affected by the external wind when flying. If bees are raised on the balcony of the city, the floor is too high, and it is hard for bees to collect honey. If they fly up for so long, they will consume too much energy, crawl hard, collect honey with low efficiency, and reduce the life of bees. How high can bees live? It is recommended that it should be on the first floor to the third floor.
• 2. Don't affect others: It is emphasized here that in urban beekeeping, whether it is a balcony or a roof, the controllable area is relatively small, and the urban buildings are densely populated, and the neighbors are close to each other. If bees are kept, it will inevitably affect others. In addition, bees have phototaxis. In the evening, bees will catch up with the light when they meet the light, and there are lights around the buildings, so bees can easily catch up with nearby households, It is not good for bee breeding, so you must choose a suitable bee breeding site, and never affect others to avoid being complained. If you want to raise bees on the balcony, the best place for the balcony is an open area or a place like a hillside, which is the most suitable place for beekeeping.
• 3. Abundance of nectar source plants: In addition to the basic hard conditions of bee breeding sites in cities, it is necessary to investigate the situation of nectar source, because with the improvement of people's living standards, the urban green environment is getting better and better, the green area is getting larger and larger, and the green plants are becoming more and more abundant, which provides feasibility for bee breeding in cities. It is suggested to investigate several nectar source sites, and consider the situation of nectar source in summer and autumn.
• 4. The number of bees cannot be too large: the limitation of urban beekeeping is relatively large. Considering that there is less space for free disposal on the premise of not affecting others, it should be kept smaller than the size of the bee colony that the honey source can bear under full consideration. If there are few bees, the flowering period is continuous, and beekeeping is easy, it can ensure that the bees have honey all the year round, and the bees rarely get sick. As long as the prevention work is done, The whole beekeeping process is also relatively relaxed and pleasant.
• 5. Concern about pollution: Bee farming is much better than raising cats and dogs in terms of environmental pollution. Many friends don't know enough about bees. They think that bees have no feces. In fact, there is a lot of bee feces, especially a group of tens of thousands of bees. That's more important. If there are clothes or sheets on the balcony, and bees like fragrance, the freshly washed sheets or clothes smell of laundry detergent, It is easy to attract bees and finally cause bee feces

Management Technology of Urban Balcony Beekeeping

To breed bees on urban balconies, in order to reduce the impact on neighbors, you should master the necessary bee colony management techniques, as follows:

• 1. When the source of honey powder is lacking, it is necessary to wait until it is completely dark before opening the box to feed the bees.
• 2. When shaking honey, you can't choose the afternoon time, and you can't shake all the honey. You should leave the surplus grain for the bees to eat.
• 3. If there is a problem with bee division, flight, or bee colony, the problem must be solved in advance, and the most stable method should be adopted.
• 4. Checking the bees, replacing the hives, shaking the bees and adjusting the spleen, introducing the queen bee, and other beekeeping operations cannot be performed in the evening.

   Summary: Although the urban balcony beekeeping lacks policy support under the general environment, as long as beekeepers pay attention to good bee colony management, good neighborhood relations, and popularize bee knowledge to everyone, make neighbors harmonious, and share some honey when they have honey. To everyone, so that neighbors will not be afraid of bees, but also know how to care for bees, understand the benefits of natural honey, and maybe it will help to continue to expand the possibility of beekeeping, so urban beekeeping has always been more controversial. When deciding to raise, it is better to consider the overall situation, otherwise it is likely to cause trouble for yourself

One-The selection of beekeeping sites

• 1. Powder source plants are abundant. Within a radius of 2.5 kilometers from the apiary, there should be 1-2 main nectar sources with relatively stable production and auxiliary nectar sources with alternate flowering, non-toxic nectar sources and honeydew nectar sources throughout the year.
• 2. The environment is suitable. There must be suitable temperature, light and humidity, and avoid choosing in tuyere, pond, and low-lying places.
• 3. The water source is sufficient, the water quality is good, and the surrounding environment is quiet.
• 4. Convenient transportation.

Two- the selection of bee colonies

    The best time to buy bee colonies is in early spring, when the temperature is rising and tending to be stable. It can also be purchased in summer and autumn, but it must be ensured that there is at least one main nectar source that year, so that even if a lot of commercial honey cannot be obtained, it can ensure the reserve of feed needed by the bee colony to survive the winter. It is worth noting that it is not advisable to buy bees after the end of the annual nectar source. At this time, in addition to the purchase cost, you must buy sugar to feed the bees, and the bee colony may die during the winter.

    Selection of bee species: Chinese honey bee: It is a species of eastern honey bee. The individual is smaller than that of the western bee, the snout is shorter, and there are two kinds of black and yellow. Chinese bees have strong resistance to stress and mites, white wax, sensitive smell, fast flight, good at avoiding enemies and using sporadic nectar sources, but strong robbery, poor orientation, unable to maintain large groups, and more irritable temperament ; 

    Western honeybees: At present, the Western honeybees raised in my country can be roughly divided into two types: yellow strains and black strains. The yellow strains represented by Italian honeybees reproduce quickly, collect high nectar and excrete a large amount of pulp, but consume a lot of feed and have a high mortality rate in cold regions. The black strains represented by the Northeast Black Bee, Korpathian Bee, and Kani Alan Bee are poor in reproduction and pulp secretion, but have strong collection power, save feed, strong cold resistance, and low winter mortality. It is superior to the yellow varieties in terms of nectar source and disease resistance.

Three-Purchase of beehives and bee kits

    Our company carries a wide variety of honey processing, filtering, and bottling equipment for harvesting excess honey at the end of the season. Excess honey is a sign of a good year—enough rain to keep the flowers blooming, but not too much to keep the bees from flying. There are several methods to harvest honey, uncap frames, extract honey from the frames, filter the honey, and bottle it. In addition, you may want to process excess wax you've collected. Here’s a breakdown of the honey harvesting and processing process.

• Harvest: There are three main tools for harvesting honey: a bee brush, an escape board, and a fume board. Use a bee brush to sweep the bees out of the way when harvesting honey. An escape board is a “door” you place on the hive—when the bees leave the honey super, they cannot find their way back, which clears all bees out in about 24 hours. A fume board is lined with a cloth inset where bee repellent is sprayed. The bees hate the smell of the repellent so they leave the honey super within minutes.

• Uncap: " Uncapping means using a special tool to remove the thin beeswax covering off your honey frames to expose your honey. Minimizing damage to the frames when uncapping is important, as you can reuse the drawn comb to give your bees a head start on refilling the box. Cappings—the layer of wax that you scrape or cut off your honey frames—contain quite a bit of honey! Strain the honey from the cappings and add it to your harvest. Rinse the beeswax you strain out with water and save it in your refrigerator or freezer to melt into beeswax cakes later.

• Extract: Using centrifugal force with a honey extractor is the fastest method of extracting honey if you have more than a few frames to harvest. Beekeeping clubs often have harvesting and extracting parties or an extracting kit you can borrow to extract your honey with minimal monetary investment. We carry a variety of honey extracting equipment for every budget, some of which can be upgraded later.

• Filter: You’ll get more than just honey during uncapping and extracting: Beeswax, propolis, and even a couple of bee parts are typical—strain or filter them out. We use two-stage filters or cheesecloth over a larger gauged sieve. This honey filtering process still allows much of the pollen to pass through.

• Bottle: Once your honey is strained, you're ready to bottle. The easiest way for the beginner to bottle is to use a plastic bucket with a gate at the bottom. Using gravity, you can easily fill the containers you wish to sell, give away, or keep. As your honey sales grow, consider buying equipment such as a bottling tank and an automatic filler.

Three Polpular Beehive

1. Langstroth beehive

Lang's beehive is the most widely used beehive so far, especially suitable for beginners. In the middle of the 19th century, Lorenzo Reverend Langstros invented and patented it. The utility model is characterized in that the movable nest spleen is applied, and bees can make honeycomb on the nest spleen. Langstroth beehives can also be stacked together to improve space utilization.

Component structure of Langstroth beehive

• Roof ------ rain proof, equivalent to the roof of the house
• Inner cover ------ The inner cover is located between the inside of the beehive and the top cover, which is used to insulate heat and prevent the frame containing the nest spleen inside the beehive from sticking to the top cover. When collecting honey, the inner cover can be used with a bee evader.
• The middle honey reservoir------mainly used as a place for bees to make honey
• Block the queen bee partition ------ only worker bees are allowed to pass through, isolate the queen bee and the male bee from the honey source, and prevent the queen bee from laying eggs on it. Not everyone chooses to use the partition.
• Live frame bee spleen -The live frame bee spleen is placed in the honeycomb in parallel. The size of the live frame is adjusted according to different beehives. Usually, the base plate made of beeswax or plastic is used to facilitate the bees to build honeycomb on it. The function of honeycomb is to place young bees, pollen, newly picked honey, or honey.
• The nursery layer of young bees ------ the nursery layer is larger than the middle honey reservoir, and the nest spleen is also larger. The queen bee lays eggs here. The bee is a matriarchal society. The responsibility for feeding young bees is to look after the bees.
• Bottom layer ------The bottom layer of the honeycomb is usually made of solid plank or transparent and visible baffle.

2. Horizontal top bar beehive

    The history of the horizontal top bar hive is earlier than that of the Langmuir hive. The long pole placed on the top of the beehive replaces the box of the Langmuir beehive. This structure does not require a base, but requires a shelf for placing crossbars. This design has some unique advantages: no need to install a heavy base, and no need to laboriously assemble the bee spleen inside the hive. The biggest advantage is that there is no need to lift the hive. If the Langmuir beehive is used, it is sometimes necessary to move the heavy hive.

     However, there are some inconvenient places in this kind of beehive. Because there is no movable bee spleen, it is impossible to use a centrifuge to separate honey when collecting honey. Therefore, the original beehive will be destroyed while collecting honey. As a result, bees will make new honeycombs every year. In general, compared with the Langmuir beehive, the horizontal top bar beehive needs to check the bee status more frequently to prevent overcrowding.

3. Warré  beehive

    The inventor of Wally's hive is Emily Worley, produced in the middle of the 20th century, is another kind of apical beehive. The top pole is not placed horizontally on the top, but is set up inside the box. This kind of beehive has no nest spleen and base, and bees make hives on the set pole.

In addition, beekeepers who use Wally usually increase the number of layers at the bottom rather than at the top, because this is more consistent with the habits of bees.

    The three most widely used beehives described above have their advantages and disadvantages. Beginners should still choose a hive suitable for their own situation according to local conditions, and construct strictly according to the size of the drawing. Careless construction will cause size deviation, which is not conducive to operation, but also affects the care of bees. It will also make bees angry and increase the probability of being stung.

Decorate your beehive

    Painting the beehive is beneficial to the maintenance of wood. The beehives are usually painted white to reflect sunlight. Now people prefer to paint the beehives in various colors. The temperature in the south is relatively high, so it is suitable to paint the beehive in light color. The water-based paint will blend well with the wood. When painting, you only need to paint the outside, not the inside of the beehive.

    Beekeepers often harvest wax in different ways. Mostly, it is a by-product of the honey harvesting process. Once melted and strained, the clean yellow wax strips can be poured in. Below is a list of 20 items you can make with beeswax.

Make candles

Picking up candles at the store is much easier than DIY. But the great thing about it is that you can control exactly what's in the candle -- including its scent.

Lubricate the wood

Apply beeswax to easy-to-stick sliding glass doors, windows or drawers to restore smooth movement. Beeswax is also an excellent lubricant for oiling very old furniture joints.

Make Your Own Beeswax Wrap

A washable, reusable and compostable product made from cotton, beeswax and some other natural ingredients such as jojoba oil and tree resin.

Whip up a batch of carneles

Crispy on the outside and custard on the inside, these French pastries are delicious. Traditionally, special molds are coated with beeswax and butter and then frozen before adding to the batter and baking, which helps give the treats their special shape and crispy appearance.

Polished furniture

Add one part beeswax to three parts olive or coconut oil and heat gently over a double boiler until melted. Let it cool and harden, then wipe the wooden furniture lightly with a clean cloth.

Make crayons

Combine equal parts beeswax and soap shavings and melt in a double boiler. Once melted, pour into molds, add a few drops of food coloring to each mold to make different shades, and stir until combined. Let the crayons harden (this will take a few hours) and they're ready to use.

Make your own lip balm

Because of its ability to lock in moisture throughout the day, beeswax is often used in makeup. This makes it ideal for keeping chapped lips beautiful and hydrated.

Conditioning wood cutting board

Melt half a teaspoon of beeswax in a cup of mineral oil and apply to the board with a clean cloth. This mixture also moisturizes and protects other wooden surfaces such as spatulas, spoons and salad bowls.

Prevent tools from rusting

Coat your tools with beeswax to keep them from rusting and the elements.

Unstick Zippers

If the zipper is particularly stubborn, here's a quick fix—just rub a small dab of beeswax on the zipper teeth.

Ukrainian egg decoration

A pysanka is a Ukrainian Easter egg decorated with traditional Ukrainian folk designs using the batik (batik) method. The word pysanka comes from the verb pysaty, "to write," because the designs are not painted on, but written in beeswax.

Cheese waxing

If you make your own cheese, beeswax is the best natural covering for the cheese. If the cheese is wet, you will need to let it dry before applying hot wax. This is to ensure proper sealing as the wax will not stick to wet surfaces. Beeswax is great for sealing because of its low melting point.

Envelope seal

You can make a beeswax seal and stick it on the envelopes you're sending. This would be great for invitations to weddings or baby showers.

DIY Shoe Polish

Repair boots, shoes, purses and more with this basic shoe polish formula. Mix and heat 2 ounces oil and 1/2 ounce beeswax until the beeswax melts. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of paint, adding more for deeper color. Makes ½ cup, about the same as what you would buy at the store. Store in a small jar.

Flavor cast iron with beeswax

If you have a set of cast iron skillets that you use regularly, they will need extra care from time to time. Seasoning them is key to their longevity.

Beeswax lipstick

If you like to put on lipstick, something with a natural tint, it's no harder than making a lip balm.

Hard lotion stick

If your hands (feet or knees!) are prone to dryness and cracking, it's time to try handmade lotion sticks. It's definitely the best substitute for Vaseline - just in case you're looking.

Beeswax coating autumn leaves

Paint the colorful leaves with beeswax to preserve them. They look good and smell good.

Homemade soap

Beeswax is often added to soap formulations to make the finished soap harder and longer-lasting. It should only make up 2% of your soap recipe.

Baby Diaper Rash Cream

It acts as a thickener because it provides a protective barrier to the skin while helping other beneficial ingredients stay on the skin for a greater effect on clearing up the rash.

What is the base of the nest?

The nest base is the base of the artificially manufactured honeybee nest, which is the concave convex thin plate of the initially formed bottom and base of the nest after being pressed by the nest base machine. The nest base is generally supported by beeswax or non-toxic plastic raw materials, which are embedded in the nest frame when used, and then the worker bees will secrete beeswax on this basis to raise the wall of the nest to form a complete nest spleen.

How to install the honeycomb base?

1. Stay wire

Before installing the base piece of the bee nest, you must go through the pull wire step. Because the stay wire can prevent the base piece from breaking during use. Usually, when pulling wire in the beehive, most people use No. 24 iron wire. After it is straightened, it is broken into a wire about 2.3 meters long. Then it is put on the side beam of the beehive three to four times. Finally, the wire head is fixed.

2. Installation of beehive base

After pulling the wire, you can put the original nesting frame in, and let both sides of the nesting frame further reinforce the two ends of the wire.

3. Buried wire

Wire embedding is also a necessary process before installing the nest base piece. You can buy a special wire embedding device, and then put beeswax on it. For the drawn wire, it should be surrounded by beeswax, and the surface should be smooth. If you do not do this, you can also buy a professional embedding plate, which can be directly installed into the beehive according to the instructions.

4. Installation of bee nest base

After all the above steps are completed, the purchased nesting base pieces can be separated one by one, and then inserted into the card slot on the nesting base frame. When inserting, pay attention to that the buried lines evenly exist on both sides of the nesting base pieces.

Advantages of Plastic Nest Foundation

Advantages 1: good temperature resistance

   The plastic nesting base has the advantages of good temperature resistance, no deformation and contraction, and good tensile elongation. The service life of general plastic nesting bases is relatively long. There is no plastic injector on the plastic nesting base, and it can also be used as an ordinary nesting base, effectively overcoming the phenomenon that the new spleen is fragile and the spleen is lost. Adding a good distance at a time can save the time-consuming and laborious process of daily inspection.

Advantages 2: good integrity and unity

   The honeycomb on the plastic nest base is unified and complete according to the manual manufacturing process. After the bee colony accepts the honeycomb, the area of worker bees' honeycomb retained in the plastic nest base is large, reducing the probability of creating drone honeycomb.

Advantages 3: It is good for controlling bees

   When using the plastic nest base, wax can be melted frequently to achieve the purpose of disinfection, and the new spleen can also be repeatedly used and reshaped, which is also conducive to controlling the bees, purposefully cultivating strong worker bees and laying a good foundation for feeding intensity.

Advantages 4: Easy installation

   The plastic nesting base is easy to install without drawing lead wire and inlaying the nesting base, which is conducive to the use of the wooden nesting frame with the upper and lower beams grooved.

Advantage 5: One box for multiple purposes

    The plastic nest base can be used for multiple purposes in one box to maximize the utility of tools. It can also be used as a double king partition board in special periods. If a wooden strip is added on the four sides to match the space of the nest box, it will also add two sides of the spleen to help improve efficiency.

What are the advantages of the Chinese bee double queen group？

1. Rapid reproduction

   The double queen colony of Chinese bees is equivalent to having two queens laying eggs in a hive at the same time. Under the same conditions, two queens will definitely lay more eggs than one queen in the same time. And because the two bees are close together, it is conducive to maintaining the stability of the hive, which creates a foundation for the colony breeding (a stable temperature of 35 ℃ is required). Therefore, it is conducive to the reproduction of the colony, and is more important for the reproduction of the colony during the recovery period.

2. High collection efficiency

   Because there are two queens in the same hive, the Chinese bees have a high enthusiasm for gathering because they can create spleen and breed insects quickly; It is not easy to generate bee splitting heat and the temperature in the hive is stable, which can reduce the number of field bees engaged in the heat preservation work in the hive, enable more field bees to carry out external collection activities, and can be early in the morning and late in the evening, so as to extend the time of attendance.

3. Easy to form strong group

   Because there are two queens in the same hive, the Chinese queen bee colony can lay eggs and reproduce quickly. The colony can well breed strong and highly collecting worker bees, which is conducive to the development of the colony into a strong colony. At the same time, the temperature in the nest of the double queen colony is suitable because of the strong swarm potential of the bees, and the bees can survive the winter safely even if they do not keep warm in winter. The strong colony also has great advantages in disease resistance, anti theft bee and anti enemy damage.

What are the disadvantages of the Chinese bee double queen group?

1.Colony biased set

   The double queen colony of Chinese bees is easy to lead to bee deviation. The main reason is that the queen pheromone secreted by the two queens is strong or weak, which will show differences in the attractiveness of bees. The second reason is that beekeepers have a biased understanding of the distance between the two areas' hives. 

   They think that the farther the two areas' hives are, the more conducive to preventing the colony deviation. However, the problem is precisely that here, it is absolutely impossible to reach the distance between the two hives of a hive.

2.Buzzers are easy to be confused

   There are two queens in the Chinese bee double queen colony at the same time, so the "queen pheromone" in the colony may be confused, leading to abnormal worker bees' attendance. In addition, the temperature in the colony is relatively high in the hot summer weather, so it is difficult to maintain a strong colony. At the same time, when the honey source is sufficient, the colony will increase its reproduction strength, causing the colony to be full of pupae, which will not play the role of double queen reproduction when the honey source is insufficient.

3.Management is troublesome

   The daily management of the Chinese bee double queen colony is also troublesome. The keepers are required to pay attention to the situation of the two queen colonies at all times, especially the situation of the double queen "visiting". When the bee colony starts to divide into two groups, if one group starts to divide into two groups, both groups will start to divide into two groups. 

   When the bee colony starts to divide into two groups, a group of bees and two groups will run out. At the same time, the Chinese bee double queen colony will affect the mating of the local queen, because the queen is prone to miscarry during mating, which will lead to mating failure.

4.Disease is difficult to control

   Although the Chinese honeybee double queen colony has certain advantages in disease resistance, anti-theft bee resistance, enemy resistance and other aspects, it is also very troublesome in disease treatment and pest prevention. If one group gets sick, the other group will also suffer, and the same prevention and treatment must be carried out. In addition, when there are wasps and other enemies attacking, due to the confused smell of the two groups of bees, it is very easy for two groups of bees in the same box to fight each other, thus causing unnecessary deaths and injuries to the bees.

Principles of beehive placement

   The distance between adjacent beehives should be at least 3 m, and the distance between the front and back rows should be a little far, at least 5 m. The front row should be lower than the back row, and the front row should be lower than the back row, with a certain sense of hierarchy. This is the best way to put them.

The arrangement of honeybee hives

1. Cross arrangement

The Chinese bee hive is divided into two parts for arrangement, and a positive and negative box is inserted between the two hives, so that there is a distance between the hives, and the Chinese bee will not enter the hive door by mistake.

2. Rectangular arrangement

That is, they are arranged in a rectangular way, leaving some space between each hive, and then forming a large circle. The direction of the entrance of all the beehives is always around a place in the middle, which is circular, so as to prevent Chinese bees from being attracted to the hive.

The placement mode of beehives 

   The Chinese bee is different from the Italian bee. It has poor nest recognition ability, and is prone to the phenomenon of lost nests. Therefore, the hive can not be placed too far away. If there are only two beehives in the box, the distance between the two beehives should not be too close, otherwise it is easy to enter the nest door by mistake, causing tearing. The best way is to stagger the nest door when placing it, with one door facing south and the other facing north. Here is a little trick, that is, the Chinese bee hive should be placed in the opposite direction of the hive door. If the placement is consistent, there will be a phenomenon that Chinese bees are obsessed with the hive. 

   Of course, experienced old beekeepers can also place their hives close to each other, but their approach is to make a clear mark at the entrance of the hive, and the mark is highly recognizable. They often use marks drawn in different colors, so that bees can find their own hive door as soon as possible. Such a close distance of about 80cm is the most appropriate.

matters needing attention

   It takes a while to change the position of the hive, so that the Chinese bees can get familiar with their hive door. After getting familiar with it, the beekeeper can slowly move the box to gradually adjust the distance. As long as the bees are familiar with the position of their hive, generally speaking, there will be no hive confusion. Although the bees will change the position of the hive manually, they will also slowly adapt. If there are new bees joining, do not put them in the hive that has been moved. The best way is to put them in the corner of the whole place, and let them fly for a while. After finding their own hive, move the box slowly.

   In addition, the bottom of the beehive can be supported with bricks, and the height is about 15-25cm. This can prevent moisture and ants, followed by drying and ventilation.

   Note: The above methods are not suitable for the transfer of Chinese bees.

Which nests and spleens cannot be left?

   There are several points to be noted in the preservation of the nest spleen: 

• First, the nest spleen that cannot be used cannot be retained; 
• Second, the old spleen with darker color cannot be retained;
• T hird, the nest spleen with more drone houses cannot be preserved;
• Fourth, the uneven nest spleen cannot be retained; 

    The above four situations are of no use value and should be discarded decisively. Therefore, when preserving the nests, it is necessary to exclude these inferior nests first, and then do a good job of sterilizing the nests to prevent long-term damage to the nests. The preservation of the nest and the appearance of deterioration of the nest.

Which nests and spleens can be preserved?

1. nest spleen with lighter and newer appearance

  This kind of nest spleen, which looks light in appearance and is relatively new, is a new spleen just created by bees. Because of its new color, it can still be used. When it is stored, it should be preliminarily treated. The specific processing steps are: shake the honey on the nest spleen, and then put it back outside the insulation board in the hive, so that the bees can clean the nest spleen after taking the honey, and then manually disinfect it for long-term storage.

2. Preservation of honey spleen and powder spleen

  Honey spleen mainly consists of whole honey spleen and half honey spleen. The preservation of honey spleen and powder spleen usually occurs in winter. This practice is to prevent bees from dying of starvation in winter when honey is scarce.

  It is a supplementary feed for preservation, and can also be used as spring breeding feed in the next spring. The preservation time should be started in autumn. The preliminary treatment method for preservation, It also needs to be sterilized before continuing to use.

How to sterilize the spleen?

   There are three common ways to sterilize the spleen: 

• The first is fumigation, that is, to preserve the spleen after treatment with drugs. The advantage is to preserve it for a longer time, while the disadvantage is that there will be drug toxicity if it is not handled well; 
• The second is the freezing method, which uses low temperature for freezing. The advantage is simple operation, but the disadvantage is that it cannot be kept for too long, otherwise it will require long-term low temperature and high cost;
• The third method is to preserve the nest spleen in the relay box. The advantage is that the operation is simple, but the disadvantage is that after long-term preservation, the nest spleen will turn black.

1. Freezing method

   The freezing method may be better understood by everyone. In fact, it is to directly put the spleen in the freezer at minus 18 ℃ for 1-2 days, and then store it according to the classification of the spleen.

2. Fumigation

   Fumigation is used to sterilize by means of drugs. Common drugs include formic acid solution disinfection, sulfur or sublimed sulfur disinfection. These disinfection drugs are relatively easy to find for beekeepers, especially for those who breed Italian bees. They are essential drugs for Italian bees to kill mites. Here we take sulfur as an example to briefly introduce how to operate.

   Before disinfection, first prepare an empty stepbox, and then put the nest spleen to be disinfected into the stepbox. On average, each stepbox is filled with about 8 to 10 pieces. Then, put 4 to 6 pieces of nest spleen into the nest box with a rear window, and distribute them evenly to both sides of the nest box. Put a high temperature resistant container in the middle of the nest box, such as a stainless steel bowl or a ceramic bowl. Ignite charcoal and put it into the bowl or bowl. Then, fold the stepbox and cover it with a bee cover, Put sulfur in the back window of the nest box at the amount of 3~5g for each stepbox, and let the sulfur dioxide gas in the nest box fumigate for about a day. Take it out and store it. Pay attention to the quick cover after putting sulfur here.

3. Relay box preservation method

   This is a simple way to operate, just put the surplus spleen into the stepbox for preservation. The key point is that the effect of this kind of preservation is relatively good. The preserved nest spleen can still be used again. Its preservation principle is that workers often crawl around the empty nest spleen in the stepbox, which can effectively drive away insect pests. In addition, the colony in the stepbox is the same as that in the bottom box, so the preservation environment is suitable. Although this preservation method will cause many cases of spleen blackening, it still does not affect the normal use.

Warm tip: The nest spleen is the " foundation" that bees cannot live without. When the population is strong, there will be a large number of bees. The bees will need more nest spleen. However, affected by various factors, the bees will also turn from prosperity to decline. At this time, there will be unnecessary nest spleen. If these redundant nests are not properly preserved, they will soon be "discarded", either moldy or destroyed by the nest insects, Therefore, using the surplus nest spleen can not only avoid waste, but also effectively improve the efficiency of beekeeping.

    According to the differences of local climates and ecological conditions over the world,bee colonies usually have varroa mite treatment with medicines at least 2 to 3 times per year,otherwise the bee colonies will be completely destroyed within 1 to 2 years.  This indicates that the attack on the bee colony by Varroa destructor is devastating.

    Fluvalinate is a synthetic pyrethroid that is commonly used in the control of Varroa mites in bees. It may be applied in form of strips or other preparations. Fluvalinate Anti-Varroa Mite Strip comes in packages of yellow colored plastic strips

    Fluvalinate is a contact pesticide which kills the Varroa mite when they come into contact with it,providing up to 100% control of Varroa mites when properly used. The ease of applying the Varroa mite control strips makes them suitable for the seasoned beekeeper,the one who is just starting,commercial apiaries as well as small outfits. A single pack of this Varroa mite control solution is enough for small beekeeping operations. It gives you 20 strips to use in the affected beehives. You can also use the strips as a preventive measure to arrest infestations in their early stages or prevent them from happening at all

Precaution

• 1.Please air-dry the strips in the shade for 24~48 hours if you find the strips are wet or sticky to each other.Strips can be come in to use when there's no stickiness to fingers,otherwise it may cause harm to bees.Please do not place it under the Sun,otherwise the efficacy will be greatly decreasing.
• 2.Do not use this product when temperature is above 35C or below 15C.The product is not recommended to be applied to the situation such as migratory beekeeping,the beginning of hiving bee colonies,sugar deficiency for bees or other abnormal situation.
• 3.The said product can not be applied to bee colonies that have been fed with alkaline pollen such as China camellia pollen or other alkaline medicines and products recently or in the period of camellia collection.
• 4.The strips should not be placed continuously in beehive for more than 6 weeks.
• 5.When one decides to hang strips,please wear protective gloves and mask.Wash hands after use.
• 6.Disused strips should not be reused and should be disposed in a centralized place.
• 7.The strips are prohibited from contact with edible honey and should not be stored together with pesticides or other chemicals.
• 8.Store the said product somewhere away from food and children's reach and only unpack the packet when it is near to use.
• 9.Do not use this product during honey flow period.

   Using a foundation press is a simple and straightforward process. With the right setup, work progresses fast. You should set up your foundation press on a flat surface so that the foundation sheets you make have even thickness. Any spills of wax should be routed back to the boiler. The press is therefore best set at a height that is higher than, and just above the wax boiler you are using.

   The equipment you need includes a wax scraper, an air blower, a hand spray can and a measuring tape. Follow these steps to make foundation sheets using the notebook beeswax foundation machine:

• Open the press and clean it. Remove any leftover wax from previous use. Dust too should be removed from the plates of the press. It is best to also clean the press immediately after use, so that you have less cleaning to do next time you want to use the press.
• Using a hand spray can, apply some water with a little detergent onto the plates of the press. This helps make sure the wax sheet does not stick to the plates. It eases removal of the wax foundation sheet in later steps of the process.
• Pour wax onto the bottom unmoving plate of the foundation press. A strong plastic cup or other suitable container can be used. Do not use iron or brass with wax. Make sure that there is enough wax on the bottom plate. Some spillover is good since it assures you that there is enough wax for the foundation sheet in the press. If you do not pour in enough wax, the foundation sheet will be uneven or smaller than it should be.
• After pouring in enough wax into the foundation press, lower the moving plate of the press. It comes on top of the bottom plate. The two plates enclose wax between them. Press down the upper plate to squeeze out any air trapped under it. Some wax might be squeezed out of the press too at this stage. Make sure to press down firmly so that the foundation sheet you make will have even thickness.
• Scrape off any wax spills from the foundation press. The wax is returned into the boiler.
• Using an air blower, separate the upper plate of the foundation press from the foundation sheet you just pressed. Aim the jet of air between the wax sheet and the upper plate of the press.
• Use the air blower to separate the sheet of foundation wax from the bottom plate of the press. You can lift the sheet as you go so that separated sections do not rest on the press plate again.
• Place your sheet of foundation on a flat surface. Trim off any excess sheet and return the wax into the boiler.

    Here are some suggestions to get better beeswax foundation sheets

• Use only a little detergent in your spray water.
• If you do not have an air blower and compressor, you can use an edged tool to pry the foundation sheet from the press. This however risks making an impression or marks on the foundation sheet.
• For best results, one or two hinges of the foundation press are elongated to project from the upper press plate. The projecting part works as a handle to help you press down on the foundation press once you have poured wax into it.
• A block of wood or metal that is the exact size of desired foundation sheets is used to make trimming faster. Place the block of wood on the finished sheet and cut off any excess foundation sheet.

    The pollen trap is an indispensable tool for the production of bee pollen. Whether the production of the pollen trap is scientific and reasonable plays a decisive role in the pollination effect. When producing bee pollen, worker bees must enter the nest through the pollination hole. At this time, worker bees have consumed considerable labor. Therefore, sophisticated pollinators should be used to improve the efficiency of pollination.

    The de pulverizers used for bee pollen production include single row or double row de pulverizers wound by fine lead wire or brocade wire on the wooden strip, 8-shaped de pulverizers, plastic de pulverizers and plastic de pulverizers, etc., but the excellent de pulverizers should have appropriate aperture, bottom plate, top plate, de bee iron yarn cylinder, sub pieces, etc.

1. The pore diameter of the pore diameter de pulverizer should be 0.46cm. 

If the pore diameter is too large, the pollen mass is easy to be carried into the nest and cannot fall off; Too small, worker bees get trapped in the nest, resulting in blocking the nest. A 0.46cm drill bit can be used as the mold to make the round hole of the powder remover.

2. Bottom plate and top plate

• The bottom plate is the auxiliary plate, also known as the foot plate. This design is very important, because it can be seen from the observation of the worker bees entering the nest: after the powder remover is installed, the worker bees enter the nest, first of all, the forefoot and midfoot enter the powder removal hole; 
• At the same time, the forefoot and midfoot must find a foothold. For the powder remover without auxiliary plate (such as 8-shaped powder remover and plastic powder remover), the worker bee has no foothold after its forefoot and midfoot enter the powder remover hole (upper row), and the powder remover hole blocks the abdomen of the worker bee. The worker bee struggles desperately. It is manifested by turning its head and chest up and down, or bending its body, and its forefoot and midfoot grasp the powder hole, Finally, the worker bees jump into the nest or enter the depilation hole one by one with their hind feet. 
• As a result, not only can they not take off the pollen, but also the worker bees are quite tired: therefore, the depilation effect is very poor when using an 8-shaped depilator and a plastic depilator.
• The top plate is the wood plate at the upper part of the powder removal hole, which is about 0.6cm away from the bottom plate, that is, the powder removal hole is between the bottom plate and the top plate. 
• The function of the top plate is to restrict the worker bee's head and brain from turning up and down after entering the powder removing hole. Instead, the worker bee can only grasp the bottom plate with its front and middle feet, and the two rear feet can move together. 
• Causing the pollen mass carried by the hind foot t o collide with the pollen hole and fall off. Therefore, the design of the top plate can improve the powder removal effect.

In addition, since the floor is the foothold of the worker bee's front and middle feet, its role is to facilitate the worker bee's front and middle feet to grasp. Therefore, the length of the bottom plate should not be too small, but should be 1cm; And the surface should be roughened to produce strength, which is conducive to the simultaneous advancement of two hind feet Reduce the worker bee's fatigue. At the same time, if the bottom plate of the powder remover is a triangular plate with low front and high rear, and the dropped pollen can easily flow into the powder collecting box from the inclined surface, the powder remover made of this design is also ideal.

3. De bee iron bobbin and side piece

• The de bee iron gauze barrel is made of window iron gauze, with a length of about 6cm, a height and width of about 2cm between the rear end of the barrel and the powder remover, and a smaller front end. This design enables worker bees and drones to exit from the bobbin smoothly, but cannot return from the original route. When installing the powder remover, the de beeping iron bobbin is installed next to the powder remover. There is a de beeping iron bobbin on one side and close to the inner side wall of the box, which can reduce the fatigue of worker bees and prevent drones from nesting and killing drones outside the powder remover.
• The secondary sheet is a thin iron sheet that can be bent arbitrarily and is installed on the side of the powder remover and is the same height as the powder remover. Its function is to adjust the length of the powder remover to facilitate installation, so that worker bees can only enter the nest through the powder remover hole. It is convenient for nest boxes with different widths. Our company's self-made scientific and reasonable excellent pollinator produces bee pollen in the flowering period of Brassica juncea in Northwest China. The daily order of high boxes is more than 0.5kg, and individual groups are more than 1kg.

    Generally speaking, in the season of abundant honey sources, the benefits of honey production are often more than that of bee pollen production. Therefore, in the period of large honey flow, it is necessary to first ensure that bees collect honey. During the honey flow period, 10 a.m. and 14 p.m. are the peak time for bees to collect honey. At this time, it is not appropriate to install a powder remover to avoid affecting honey production.

    The length of time that the pollinator is placed in front of the door of the hive can be determined by the pollen storage in the hive and the daily pollen collected by the hive. If the number of pollen collected by the bee colony is large and the pollen storage in the nest is sufficient, the time for the pollen remover to be placed can be relatively long. The strength of de powdering shall not affect the normal development of bee colony. Generally, the de powdering time is 1 ~ 3H every day.

1. Take care of yourself

Beekeepers can really get to know and love these fascinating creatures, but that doesn't change the fact that they sting! Safety should always be a top priority when moving hives. This may upset the bees, so keep your beekeeping gear to prevent holes or tears. Even after the hives have been controlled, wear your protective clothing, such as beekeeping suits, gloves or hats and veils in case the bees leak out. In addition, when moving, you want to make sure that the hive is safe and cushion the bumps in the move. If the crate or hive breaks, many restless bees will come out.

2. Protect the beehives

When you move the hive, you don't want to separate or lose any colony members. It is recommended to move the hive after sunset or early in the morning, as worker bees return to the hive for the night. Be sure to close the entrance to the hive before moving it so that your bees cannot escape. You can also wrap the hive in a beehive net to ensure that no bees are left behind. Also, be sure to secure LIDS, frames, and other honeycomb components to avoid rattling or cracking during transport.

3. Don't overheat the bees

Temperature control is one of the most important functions of a hive. Bees work hard to make sure the inside of the hive is not too hot or too cold. As we mentioned, when you transport a hive, you must seal off the entrance to keep the colony safely inside. Unfortunately, this also means trapping heat inside, making it harder for bees to properly ventilate the space. One of the important tips for moving a hive safely and avoiding overheating is to move after sunset or first thing in the morning, when the temperature is low. You can also block the entrance of the hive with a mesh screen or other cover that allows air circulation. If you are moving a hive in a vehicle, be sure to use air conditioning or roll down the Windows to prevent the hive from overheating.

4. Plan to move at night

During the day, temperatures can rise to dangerous levels for bees. Also, the more people you have on the road, the higher chance you have of traffic risks and accidents. Staying out of traffic is also dangerous for bees. The darkness of the night makes it harder to see what you're doing, but there are fewer variables that make you lose control. Daytime is the natural foraging time for bees, so nocturnal activity does not disrupt their natural need to leave the hive and helps ensure that you do not leave any bees behind.

You must have proper hive equipment when handling and transporting your colony. We can help you find the equipment, gear or advice you need to care for your bees.

1. The structure of the honeybee's natural hive

    A honeycomb is made up of multiple spleens, and each spleen is made up of many cells. The nest is the basic unit that constitutes the nest. Many nests are placed side by side on the same side of the nest, and the nests on the two sides of the nest are close to each other back-to-back to form the nest. Great influence on the nest.

• ⑴The shape of the worker hive: The section of the worker hive is a regular hexagon, which is the result of the long-term evolution and natural selection of bees. The nest is built into a regular hexagonal structure, which not only makes full use of the limited space, but also consumes the least beeswax and provides the greatest strength. Due to the weight of the nest and spleen, the weight of the honey and powder on the spleen and the temperature of the nest, the two sides of the nest that are perpendicular to the upper beam are often slightly longer than the other sides, so strictly speaking, the nest is not a regular hexagon.
• (2) The size of the worker hive: The hive is the place where bees nurture and reproduce their offspring. The entire growth and development period of bees from eggs to adult bee emergence is spent in it. Its size is very important to the reproduction of bee colonies and the individual development of bees. big impact. Studies have shown that worker bees bred in larger worker hives are larger in size and weight, but fewer worker bees are bred per unit area.
• (3) The direction of worker honeycomb cells: the position of a group of parallel opposite sides of the hexagonal cells relative to the attachment line of the spleen is called the direction of the cells. When a set of parallel opposite sides of the hexagonal cells are perpendicular to the attachment line of the spleen, the direction of the cells is vertical; when a set of parallel opposite sides of the hexagonal cells are parallel to the attachment line of the spleen, the cells are direction is parallel
• ⑷The bottom structure of the worker's honeycomb room:The bottom of the worker's honeycomb room is composed of three prismatic wax sheets, which are pyramid-shaped. The obtuse angle of the prismatic wax sheet is 109°28', the acute angle is 70°32', and the intersection angle of the two prismatic wax sheets is 120°. The three prismatic wax sheets at the bottom of the nest are 1/3 of the bottom of the three nests on the other side of the nest.

2. nest foundation

   The base of the cell house is the protruding part of the hexagonal edge of the bottom of the cell house. The height of the base of the cell house is about 0.5 mm, and the bees build the cell wall based on it when they build the hive. The depth of the eyes of the nest foundation is related to the height of the foundation.

3. Mechanical Design and Manufacturing Requirements

    The mechanical design and manufacture of the nest foundation machine mainly depends on the technical strength of the relevant mechanical design and manufacturing departments, but the nest foundation machine itself has the following requirements:

• First, the nest foundation machine embossing roller or the nest foundation embosser's nest room The bottom model should have high precision and finish (to prevent beeswax from sticking to the mold when embossing the nest foundation); 
• Secondly, a proper cooling system and lubrication system should be designed to cool and lubricate the rollers during the nest foundation production process 
• Third, the degree of mechanization should be higher.

    There are many factors that affect the reproduction of the bee colony in autumn, such as the external source of nectar powder, the basic group potential of the bee colony, and the weather conditions, etc. These are all objective factors, but we can adopt appropriate methods and methods according to the conditions of bees. In order to reproduce the bee colony as well as possible, the author believes that the autumn reproduction of the bee colony should grasp such key links.

One:Cure bee mites

    In recent years, bee mites have become an important hazard in beekeeping production, and mite control has also become a compulsory course for beekeepers. Autumn is the most serious season for bee mites. At this time, the bee colony tends to weaken, and the autumn breeding has cultivated a large number of bees, and the bee mites will also take the opportunity to start a large number of reproduction. Large and small bee mites are often harmed together, resulting in poor development of bee larvae and dead pupae; young bees leaving the house are weak and disabled, and the harm is very serious. will also cause collapse.

    The treatment of bee mites is still quite difficult. Because the bee colonies continue to lay eggs and reproduce during the breeding and production seasons, there is always a cover cell in the hive, which protects the large and small bee mites. Completely eradicated. Therefore, in order to completely cure the mites, the only way is to cut off the king's son, so that the nest is not covered, so that all the bee mites are exposed and then the drug is used to achieve good results. 

    The prisoner king should be determined according to the local climate and source conditions of honey powder, usually 10 days before the start of autumn breeding. A more traditional and reliable method is to use a mixture of sublimated sulfur and water acaricide, usually two or three times, until the mites are effectively killed. It is worth noting that the treatment of mites must be flexibly controlled according to the size of the bee colony. It cannot be the same, and the dosage cannot be expanded or reduced at will. For safety reasons, one or two groups can be used for the test first, and then the whole field can be applied after safety.

Two: The prevention of bee robbery

    Stealing bees is most likely to occur in autumn, because at this time the external sources of nectar and powder have basically been depleted, while the bees are still active. If the colony is weak or strong and weak, the possibility of stealing bees will be greater. In serious cases of mutual stealing, the queen bee is bitten to death and the honey is stolen, which will cause a devastating blow to the bee farm. Bees are also communicators of infectious diseases, so we must strengthen anti-theft work. Preventing bees from stealing should start from the following aspects.

• 1. Maintain a balanced group

In the process of daily management, the colony potential should be adjusted by adjusting the spleen, so that the colony potential of the entire bee colony is roughly the same, and the phenomenon of different sizes should be avoided.

• 2. Strengthen management

When there is no nectar source in the outside world, the nest door should be appropriately narrowed and the excess nests should be removed. If it is not necessary, try to reduce the number of bee colonies. When it is really necessary to check, you should choose to check early and late, and avoid too long. Feeding or reward feeding should be done in the evening after dark, and do not spill the feed outside the box.

• 3. Deal with sporadic thieves in time

When individual robbers are found, they must be taken seriously and dealt with in a timely manner. Timely shrink the door of the bee colony, put weeds, branches, etc., cover the door or spray diesel, kerosene, etc. on the door to avoid stealing bees and prevent the bees from spreading in the audience.

Three:The basic group potential of reproduction

    The colony vigor of the bee colony is an important factor affecting the reproduction. Under the same conditions of nectar source and management measures, the reproduction effect of the weak colony is generally not very good, which will affect the bee colony's overwintering and beekeeping production in the coming year. Reach more than 7 frame bees. If the base swarm is weak, you can adjust the swarm by tweaking or merging.

Four:Use the new king to breed as much as possible

    The reproduction of a colony is inseparable from the queen bee. The quality and age of the queen bee are the keys to autumn reproduction. Generally speaking, the queen bee that has just started giving birth has the best effect. If you do not have the conditions for raising the queen in autumn, the new king of the year can also be used, but it is best not to use the old king of the previous year, because the egg-laying power of the old king is relatively relative to the new king. If it is worse, it will affect the effect of autumn breeding more or less. The new kings cultivated in autumn will still have good fecundity until next spring, and the reproductive effect will also be very good, but the breeding time of the kings should be flexibly controlled according to the local climatic conditions.

Five:Reward feeding

   It is very necessary to reward the bee colony during autumn breeding. Experiments have shown that proper reward feeding can increase the reproduction rate by more than 20%. Only by making the colony feel that the outside world is adequate, can the queen bee lay more eggs and the worker bees actively nurture.

• 1. Feed ratio

    The concentration of reward feeding should be flexibly controlled according to the feed situation in the bee colony. If there is honey stored in the hive when breeding, the concentration of syrup can be diluted. The ratio of sugar and water is 1:2, and the reward is fed every day or every other day. once. If there is no honey in the nest, a large amount of thick syrup (sugar and water in a ratio of 1:1) should be used to supplement feeding until the corners and edges of the spleen are full of honey, and then a small amount of thin syrup should be used for reward feeding. When rewarding feeding, it is best to add an appropriate amount of honey, which will have a better effect on stimulating bee colonies to accelerate reproduction. If it is purchased honey, it needs to be boiled before blending and feeding.

• 2. Reward the amount and time of feeding

   It is necessary to insist on feeding every day, every night after dark, to prevent the occurrence of stealing bees; the amount of feeding should not be too much, mainly to stimulate the queen bee to actively lay eggs and the worker bees to actively nurse, and to prevent squeezing the hive.

• 3. Observe the pollen situation

    If the outside pollen is deficient, you need to supplement pollen. However, when there is a lot of pollen outside, the pollen should be removed in time to prevent the hive from being squeezed and affecting the queen bee laying eggs.

For bee colonies with small colonies, such as small colonies with 3 to 4 spleens, it is not easy to reward feed, so as not to induce stealing bees. When the feed is insufficient, the method of adding large honey powder spleens can be used.

    Your beehive has a similar story. Beehives are an important place for bees to live and make honey when people breed bees. Because beehives are placed in mountains, fields and woods in nature most of the time, they are often infested by ants and even affect bees in severe cases. Colony development, and production of bee products. Therefore, the presence of ants in the beehive has become a major problem for beekeepers. If this happens to you too, don't worry, let me tell you what to do if there are ants in the hive.

1. Keep your yard clean

   Making your yard less attractive to ants can protect your bees. Mow the lawn and remove weeds. This also helps remove any bridges that make it easier for ants to enter the hive.

2. Keep it off the ground

   The first thing you should do is make sure your hives are off the ground. Beehives left on the ground or sitting on cinder blocks are easy options for an army of ants. It is also difficult to see ants entering when the hive is on the ground.

   Buy a good stand that's at least 6 inches tall to keep ants away. Keep an eye on the legs of the brace. This is the only way for ants to get inside the hive, so check the legs if possible

3. Build a moat around the hive legs

   Place a wide container under each leg of the hive, then fill each container with liquid. This moat will provide a barrier and act as a good deterrent to the ants.

   Although ants cannot swim in water, they can float on top. It is best not to use water, it is best to use environmentally friendly vegetable oil. Some breeders use motor oil, but it's not ideal if it ends up submerged in the ground.

   The occasional curious bee will end up drowning in your moat, but they'll be few and far between. The advantages of a moat buffer will far outweigh any disadvantages.

4. Creating a physical or chemical barrier also helps keep ants away.

   The most effective defense against ants is to pool vegetable oil around each leg of the hive. The best way is to put each leg in a jar full of oil. You can also use soapy water as it will cause the ants to drown. It doesn't kill the ants instantly, though. Instead, the soap destroys the ants' natural water repellency -- the hydrophobic coating -- and drowns them. This is how people usually get rid of fire ant colonies.

5. Choose your poison

   If you find that your beehive is overrun by ants, you may need to use a commercial poison. Because ants and bees are so closely related, care needs to be taken—ant-killing poisons could also lead to a decline in bee populations.

Use a small bait station designed for ants so your bees can't reach the poison, or spread the granular insecticide around the hive. Avoid sprays and powders as they can drift into the hive and cause problems. You may need to try several poisons before you find the one that works for you.

Summarize

    Beekeepers must be vigilant in areas where ants are a problem. Implement one (or preferably several) of the strategies above to help keep your hives away from ants.

    If you find ants inside a hive, it's a strong indicator that the colony is in trouble. A thriving hive should be able to use its power in numbers to deter pests. Once you've eliminated the ant infestation, take some time to try to find out if there are other problems in the hive.

    Monitoring your beehive is an important first step. You need to be able to assess the situation to resolve it. Make sure you maintain your beehive and keep it in top shape. We recommend staying away from harsh chemicals - things like commercial ant powder and diatomaceous earth can weaken your beehive over time.

   Honey crystallization is an inherent physical phenomenon of honey, and the phenomenon is the same as water freezing, very normal. Water freezes at less than 0 degrees Celsius, and honey crystallizes at less than 14 degrees Celsius. Honey crystallizes because 80% of honey is made up of sugar. It is a supersaturated solution of sugar. The main components of this sugar are glucose and fructose. Glucose has very, very small crystalline nuclei in it, and when honey is stored at low temperatures, the glucose condenses around these crystalline nuclei, slowly forming white flocks, then clumps, and finally all solid crystalline honey. So the point here is that honey crystals are glucose crystals. So we tell our friends: Honey crystallization is to honey quality, honey nutritional composition does not have any influence, continue to eat is without any problem.

    Another point that needs to be added. Some friends asked: Why did I store it in the refrigerator, the temperature was so much lower than 14 degrees Celsius, why did it not crystallize after a few days. This is because the temperature is too low, but it increases the consistency of honey, which directly affects the moving speed of glucose in honey, thus reducing the crystallization speed of honey on the contrary. The best crystallization temperature of honey is 13-14 degrees Celsius.

    Therefore, the state's express regulations on the state of honey are: "transparent viscous liquid or crystal".

     In fact, these ideals must be understood by everyone, but why people are still skeptical about the crystallization of honey, thinking that it is fake honey, or that the honey has deteriorated. It is estimated that this is related to the honey that people see in major supermarkets.

     Bottled honey in supermarkets is liquid, even in winter. This is because after the honey is placed on the shopping shelf, if the honey inside is crystallized, it will cause a very unsightly appearance, and people also have a feeling that liquid honey is easy to eat and easy to pour. Therefore, people will always give priority to buying honey that has not yet turned into crystals. After this phenomenon is discovered by the merchant, the merchant will take some measures: filter the honey, filter out a large amount of glucose crystallization nuclei, and then pass the high temperature above 77 degrees Celsius to completely destroy the crystallization nuclei in the honey. Then this honey will not crystallize. When this honey is placed on supermarket shelves in large quantities, over time, there will be a subtle hint to people: honey does not crystallize. When this kind of suggestion is overwhelming, people will think that crystallized honey is not good honey. This idea is very wrong.

     Beehive waxing is one of the measures for beehive anticorrosion and protection of beehives, and beekeepers at home and abroad have adopted it. By applying wax, the wood fibers of the beehive are filled with wax, which can reduce the water absorption of the beehive and improve the water-repellent ability of the beehive, keep the beehive dry to avoid mold parasitism, and achieve the purpose of anti-corrosion and protection of the beehive.

      Beehive waxing generally involves dipping the entire hive parts in liquid (melted) beeswax, paraffin or a mixture of beeswax and paraffin. The specific method is: use a metal container larger than the beehive box as a pot for melting wax and dipping wax. Put the wax raw material into the pot, heat it to 160～204℃, then immerse the box body or other parts that need to be waxed in the melted wax for about 5 minutes after the surface has been polished with sandpaper, then pick it up and set aside for 12 hours to let it cool down. Finish waxing the part.

     When applying wax by dipping, care should be taken that the beehive parts should be sufficiently dry. If the parts are not dry, the dipping wax will seal the moisture in the wood, causing the wood to rot and damage. At the same time, the surface of the parts to be waxed should be cleaned, especially the used or regularly waxed parts of the beehive should remove the propolis, dust and other dirt on the surface.

     It is believed that the use of paraffin impregnation treatment of beehives, its anti-corrosion effect is 2 ~ 3 times higher than paint. The Yankee's TewJ reports that beehives made of tunnel wood decay in a few years, but can last up to 10 years if they are dipped in wax every three or four years.

     In addition, some beekeepers add sealant to wax raw materials or use different mixed wax raw materials to achieve better wax effect. Such as the Yankee Texas OtteBC in the box dipped in wax after the rapid immersion into additional sealant in the molten wax; StollerD, Ohio, used a mixture of paraffin and resin to impregnate the chamber and was found to be effective. Beekeepers in New Zealand coat wax-soaked boxes with coloured polythylene-based acrylic after they have cooled.

Beeswax is available, then our beehive treatment is very simple. The simple steps are as follows:

• 1. After the beeswax is filtered, put the beeswax in the prepared small pot, and then slowly heat it with a medium and small fire. After a while, the beeswax will turn into a liquid, and then you can start to apply the wax.
• 2. Before applying beeswax, take off the box cover of the beehive, take an appropriate amount of beeswax with a brush, and start brushing from the inside of the beehive. When applying beeswax, keep it even, not too thick or too thin. It is best to ensure that the wax layer is around five millimeters.
• 3. After smearing the beeswax inside the beehive, you should also smear the inside of the beehive with beeswax, and then start smearing the exterior of the beehive. After all the beehives are applied, check to see if there are any gaps in the beehive. Smooth it out with beeswax.
• 4. After the beehive is smeared, it should be placed in a cool place to dry naturally, and it can be officially put into use after three to four days.

    Beekeeping is a thorough technical activity. Beekeeping by skilled people and beekeeping by unskilled people are two completely different concepts. In fact, besides technology, there are actually many things that need to be paid attention to, especially for beginners. In terms of beekeeping, we should pay more attention. Let's take a look at the taboos of novice beekeeping!

1. Avoid being blindly greedy

Greed for colonies is the most common mistake made by many novice beekeepers. They always think that the more bee colonies, the higher the yield, or if there are not dozens of bees, it seems embarrassing to call beekeepers, but they don’t know the total production of honey and the number of bee colonies. To a certain extent, there is no necessary relationship, and it is not a simple multiplication. In fact, from the perspective of bees themselves, a strong colony is the basis for high yield. No one has ever said that multiple colonies can produce high yields. Some novice colonies reach 4 to 5. The frame bees are divided into groups, and the end result is that the number of groups is too large, and the management is difficult, but there is no benefit at all, which is completely thankless.

2.avoid adding spleen indiscriminately

Adding spleen indiscriminately is a common mistake made by novices, and even some veterans will make it. It seems that the more spleen in the beehive, the stronger the bee colony is. In fact, it is completely wrong. Less spleen and more spleen are not conducive to heat preservation. In summer, less bees and more spleen are not conducive to heat dissipation. Many people may understand that it is not conducive to heat preservation in winter. Why is it not conducive to heat dissipation in summer? The reason is that when the weather is hot in summer, worker bees will fan to cool down. Fewer bees and more spleen will inevitably lead to incomplete cooling. Remember, no matter when you add spleen, you need more bees than spleen or honeycomb.

3. Avoid taking light honey

Taking honey is the harvest season for beekeepers. It was originally a very happy thing, but many novices are not happy after taking honey. It turns out that the bee colony escaped after gathering honey. , but ran after taking honey. The reason is already obvious, that is, there is a problem with taking honey. Do bees run after taking honey? Obviously not, otherwise there are people who keep bees there. The main reason for the bees to escape after taking the honey is that you have taken all the honey and leave no rations for the bee colony.

4.avoid indiscriminate medication

Beekeepers are most afraid of encountering bee diseases, but bee diseases are a problem that beekeepers can never avoid. The outbreak of a highly contagious bee disease can destroy a apiary in a short period of time. Anxious and indiscriminate medication often causes major problems because the medication is not symptomatic, and even healthy groups that are not sick have become sick groups. Beekeepers, especially novice beekeepers, should try their best in their spare time. Learn more about the symptoms and prevention methods of bee diseases. When the bee colony develops a disease, don't rush to take medicine. First, find out what disease the bee is suffering from, and then prescribe the right medicine.

5.avoid indiscriminate feeding

Feeding of bees is the key technology of beekeeping. Whether feeding is correct is inevitably related to the development of bee colonies. Although there are many feeding methods for bees, they can be roughly divided into reward feeding and feeding in terms of the purpose of feeding. There are two types of subsidized feeding. Reward feeding can stimulate the queen bee to lay eggs and encourage worker bees to nurse, while subsidy feeding can provide the necessary material basis for the colony. Many novice beekeepers have no rules and disorder when feeding bees. Feeding one pass, as everyone knows, this will not only fail to promote the development of the bee colony, but may even bring about many negative effects.

6.avoid double queen in the same box

The double king colony is a relatively high-end beekeeping technology. Many novices who do not even understand the basic habits of bees also like to study the double king colony. It seems that if the double king colony is done well, the bees are raised. In fact, many times it is completely unnecessary. A group of bees can reach a strong colony of more than 10 frames. Of course, it does not mean that it is impossible to do a double-king colony, but it is indeed not suitable for novices. In fact, the double-king colony mostly breeds in winter and spring. It is formed at the time of spring breeding, and after spring breeding, it will also be split into two single king groups, one strong and one weak. The strong group is used for production, and the weak group is used for continued breeding.

Summary: Although bee farming requires certain beekeeping skills, no matter what beekeeping technology is based on the habits of bees, it is best for novices to observe and understand the habits of bees, and then manage around the habits of bees The bee colony, after fully grasping the habits of bees, it will not be a big problem.

Definition of nest door

    The hive door refers to the entry and exit window of the beehive, and is the only channel for bees to move. The size of the nest door can be adjusted at will, and the specific adjustment method is slightly different from the type of beehive used, and some beehives also come with accessories such as nest door stops.

Regular nest door management

1. Changes in the nest door

   Bees are insects with strong orientation and nest awareness, so if you want to change the nest door, don't be in a hurry, you can only change a little bit less every day, so that the bees can slowly accept it, so the management effect is better. .

2. The switch of the nest door

   When the bee colony is irritable due to changes in the environment, such as: sultry heat, flight or transportation, etc., do not rush to open the nest door, but first cool and ventilate the bee colony to make the bees in the colony emotional. Open the nest door after stability, otherwise, once the nest door is opened, the bees will rush out because they can't bear the sweltering heat, and the phenomenon of deviation or flight will occur, which will cause economic losses to beekeeping.

3. The expansion and contraction of the nest door

   The expansion and contraction of the nest door is basically divided into three periods for management, namely: the breeding period, the honey flow period and the nectar connection period. During the breeding period, beekeepers should properly shrink the nest door, which is conducive to thermal insulation and anti-theft; during the honey-flowing period, the nest door should be appropriately expanded, which is conducive to the collection of bees and the improvement of yield; During the connection of nectar sources, when there is no source of nectar powder outside, the nest door should also be shrunk to prevent the phenomenon of stealing bees.

Precautions for Adjusting Nest Doors

• Pay attention to the direction of the nest door

The direction of the nest door is also similar to the human living environment. It is best to sit north and face south, which can not only avoid direct sunlight, but also facilitate the entry and exit of bees, which is conducive to ventilation and heat dissipation of the hive.

• Prevent enemy invasion

The direction of the hive door should be convenient for worker bees to guard the hive. We can install an anti-escape film at the hive door, which can effectively prevent wax moths and wasps from entering the hive. Even if the natural enemies of the bees want to enter the hive, they will be stopped at the door. If there is an enemy in the mouth, it only needs to be beaten manually. Pay attention to the bee colony moisturizing and keeping warm.

Reminder: The nest door management is handled separately according to different time periods. Doing a good job in the management of the nest door will help to increase production and prevent the occurrence of bee stealing and insect pests.

    Queen breeding is a complicated work in beekeeping production. It is necessary to use a breeding box to separate the breeding group. In some seasons, the breeding of the queen affects the reproduction and collection of the production group. After the new queen is bred and spawned, she must intervene in the production group, and the breeding group must be combined. The author uses practical multifunctional beehives to raise queen, which reduces the intermediate links such as grouping, changing queen and swarming.

Breeding queen in spring

• 1. Nest box: the queen of group breeding put a single yarn cover on the nest box, and then put half of the cloth and the relay box. When the colony potential of the queen in the relay box reaches more than 8 frames, put a single yarn cover on the first relay box and then put a cloth cover on the second relay box. Both the nest and the queen in the relay box can put a spacer plate in the relay box to breed a double queen.
• 2. Before the honey flow period, when the auxiliary honey source is poor (supplementary feed is required), the queen shall be reared with double yarn covers on the nest box, and the second relay box shall be placed on the crown table: when the auxiliary honey source is good (the feed is slightly surplus), the queen shall be reared with single yarn covers on the nest box, and the crown table shall be placed on the second relay box, or the partition plate shall be removed while the second relay box is placed on the crown table, and the egg laying queen shall be imprisoned in the crown cage, and the newspaper shall be placed on the crown cover, When the honey source is better, put the yarn cover on the first relay box, and the second relay box raises the queen.
• 3. During the period of honey flow, the queen is not separated from the queen, and the queen is not imprisoned. The second relay box is placed on the queen's platform.
• 4. After the end of the honey flow period, the queen breeding in the bee field is the same as that before the honey flow period. There are two kinds of queen rearing in the transferred bee field: transferring back to the original field or transferring to a new honey source field. The former is the same as that in the fixed bee field. If it is necessary to increase the number of groups for queen rearing, the packaging shall be removed on the day of transferring back to the original field, and the double king group that has successfully mated in the honey flow period shall be divided into single queen groups, and then the stronger single queen group shall be divided into one-third groups and placed on the nest box of the new and old queen groups. The latter is the same as the former.
• 5. The autumn breeding season is the continuation period of the colony strength and the most productive period of the bee colony. It can verify and observe the colony strength and the advantages and disadvantages of the queen bee, which is conducive to cultivating the new queen. When the honey source is poor, put a double yarn cover on the nest box. When the honey source is good and the group potential is strong, put the yarn cover on the first relay box (transfer to the ground) or the second relay box (fixed to the ground), and place the crown on the second or third relay box.

Precautions for queen breeding

• 1. Precautions for breeding queen in spring: the auxiliary honey source is poor in spring. During breeding queen, if the feed in the nest cannot meet the needs of the breeding group, it is necessary to add enough honey spleen or feed enough in advance to avoid feeding bees to interfere with the breeding queen group. The colony potential of the nest box should reach 6-7 frames of bees, and the colony potential should not exceed 8 frames of bees during the breeding period, so as to prevent the breeding colony from generating the fever of dividing bees and the trouble of managing the colony. In addition, the queen breeding group should be scattered as much as possible, and the increase in density or the orderly rowing will reduce the success rate of queen breeding.
• 2. Breeding the queen in the early stage of honey flow: promote the new queen to lay eggs. In the early stage of honey source, the breeding of the queen is completed in the honey flow (the end time of honey source, the time of the introduction of the peak king and the time of the transfer shall be unified in the bee field). The honey flow period shall be at least 12 days, so that the queen can be placed and the queen can be introduced. In the end of the period, the peak colony can not produce bee fever, that is, the bee collection and the laying of the queen are normal. The breeding and grouping of the transferred bees should be carried out on the same day or in the morning of the next day (preferably the same day) after they are transferred back to the original site or transferred to the new site, because after two days, the bees re recognize their nests and fly, and some bees in the new colony return to their original nests, which is not conducive to the breeding of the separated bees and the rapid proliferation and development of the new colony.
• 3. During the honey flow period, the production group opens the temporary nest door in the relay box, and the bees are used to entering and leaving the nest door. The door of the nest box is wide open, and there are many bees in and out, and the smell of the group is also large. When the mating queen bee and the bee return to the nest and approach the nest door, they mainly rely on the swarm smell and color to identify. In addition, when the virgin king comes out of the nest for mating, the bees also actively go out of the nest to collect and follow the mating king to emit group odor, which plays a role in guiding the mating queen to return to the nest. Even if the nest door is opened for more than ten days, and the nest door is relatively large, the virgin king can easily enter the nest box by mistake. When collecting bees and test flying bees return to the nest, they must pass through the nest box with the queen. Once there are abnormal conditions inside and outside the nest, the bees are likely to be hostile to the virgin queen or besieged, which will lead to the failure of breeding the queen.
• 4. During the honey flow period, the group breeding queen is produced, and the spawning queen is separated from the queen only by the king plate. In addition, there is no need to adjust the nest spleen for the king rearing group with the yarn cover on the nest box of the production group. The queen rearing group with the yarn cover should be added with the yarn cover in the morning of the first day, and the queen stage should be placed in the afternoon or the morning of the second day, so that the bees who have recognized the nest and tested fly in the nest box can return to the relay box for a few hours before the queen comes out to prevent the queen from being surrounded. The door of the male hive shall be temporarily closed to prevent the collusion of bees from affecting the breeding of the queen.

    To sum up, the time and method of cultivating queen should be reasonably arranged according to the local climate, honey source conditions, the number of king in the field and the labor intensity of each season. For example, the honey source period of Tilia amurensis in Northeast China is more than 20 days. At the initial stage of the honey source, the insect breeding platform can be moved and qualified Wangtai can be bred. During the peak period of honey flow, the production colony will be moved. During the period when the queen is introduced and mating, there will be no encirclement of the queen. In the middle and late period of honey flow, it is necessary to expand the nest. When the queen lays eggs in large numbers, the new Queen also begins to lay eggs. In this way, it does not affect honey collection, nor does it need to separate queen breeding groups, and it also cultivates queen bees that meet the production needs of the whole year for autumn breeding and next spring breeding.

    Bee venom is a poisonous liquid secreted by the venom and accessory venom glands of worker bees and stored in the venom sac. When worker bees defend themselves, the venom is expelled from the tail sting. Based on this, people's initial method of extracting bee venom was to kill chickens to retrieve eggs: that is, the tail of the bee was cut with scissors and bee venom together with the bee stinger, and then air-dried and ground into powder. This method is very inefficient, and the purity of the bee venom obtained is extremely low, and the hygiene work is not in place.

    Later, people used ether extraction method to paralyze the nerves of bees and promote their detoxification. But it is also due to the same reason that the obtained bee venom is not of high purity and has to be abandoned. Until 1955, people finally discovered an efficient collection method: electric shock to get poison.

Electric poisoning equipment

    We have also done the two original poisoning methods described above, but we have to give up because the purity of the proposed bee venom is quite low, the loss to the bee colony is very large, and there are other factors such as time-consuming and laborious. After studying a large number of related books and reading a lot of information, the technical masters finally produced a product that uses electric current to stimulate bees and promote their detoxification: bee venom extractor.

Working mechanism

    Electric poisoning is to use a certain current to pass through the body of the bee. After the bee is shocked by the electric shock, it will produce a detoxification reaction and discharge the bee venom. The removed bee venom should be packed and sealed in a brown glass bottle for purification.

Matters needing attention when extracting bee venom by electricity

• 1. A bee farm with a better natural environment should be selected for the poison collection site, so as not to affect the quality of bee venom by the dust and automobile exhaust. Operators and poison-taking utensils should pay attention to cleanliness, especially the poison-taking board should be disinfected with ethanol, and do not smoke or use sprayers during work. Do not open the beehive to watch when taking the poison. After a group of bees has taken the poison, the bees should be quiet for 10 minutes before removing the poison-taking device.
• 2. The time to take the poison should be selected when the wild mountain flowers are less blooming. Because the poison is taken when the mountain flowers are in full bloom, the worker bees will spit honey while detoxifying, which will contaminate the bee venom. Taking poison should be done in the evening or at night when the temperature is not lower than 15 ℃ and the wind is small (but not more than 11 o'clock in the evening). (Flowers bloom for honey, flowers fall for poison)
• 3. The bee colony that takes the poison should choose a colony with more strong and old bees, because the young bees are easily injured by electric shock when taking the poison, and the amount of the poison will also be reduced.
• 4. Bee venom has a strong odor and is highly irritating to the human respiratory tract. Wear a mask when scraping the poison.
• 5. The bee colony after taking the poison should be properly rewarded and fed, supplemented with nutrition, and promptly recovered the physique of the bees after the electric shock. In addition, it is not advisable to move the beehive after taking the poisonous bee colony. It is necessary to rest for 3 to 4 days. After the "residual anger" of the bee colony is eliminated, the position of the beehive can be adjusted.
• 6. The obtained bee venom should be sealed in a dark bottle and stored in a low temperature place.

     The size of the frame of the initial Dadant beehive is 470 mm × 286 mm (width × height), which is 22 mm wider and 54 mm higher than Lang's frame. In 1917, Dadant changed the width of the hives to be the same as Lang's hives, but the height was still 286 mm, in order to make the beehives adapt to the use of subsequent hives to produce honeycombs, and each box contained 11 hives. The distance between the spleen of the Dardan type beehive is 38 mm, which is 3 mm larger than that of the Lang's beehive (35 mm), that is, the bee path between the frames in the box is 11 mm. The inner diameter of each frame of the Dardan-type beehive is 428 mm×254 mm, the useful area is 10.87 dm ², each box has 11 spleens, and the total area of the frame is 120 dm ², which is 34 dm ² more than that of Langstroth beehives, equivalent to The area of 14 Langstroth nest boxes. Except for the size, the other parts of the Dardan hive are the same as the Langstroth hive.

Compared with Lang's ten-frame beehives, Dadant-style beehives have the following characteristics:

• First, the volume of the beehive is large, so there is no need to add a feed box in winter, and the next box can be postponed in early spring. The Dardan type beehive is larger in size, and its total area of spleen is 120 dm ², which is 34 dm ² more than Lang's hive (86 dm ²), which is equivalent to the area of 4 Langstroth honeycombs. The area can not only store more feed for the bee colony to overwinter, but also store honey on the upper and both sides of each hive, so that the bees can congregate in the relatively gentle place near the upper beam of the hive frame in winter,and there is no need to add a feed box for overwintering.
  . The Dadant-style beehive is larger in size, and the bee colony has more room for growth. It can be postponed in the early spring when the climate is severe, so as not to suddenly expand the beehive and affect the bee colony heat preservation.
• Second, the bee path between the beehive frames is large, which is beneficial for bees to gather and keep warm in winter, and it is beneficial for ventilation in the colony in summer. The distance between the spleen of the Dardan type beehive is 38 mm, and the bee path (11 mm) between the frames is larger, which can gather more bees to keep warm between the spleen in winter and early spring, which is beneficial to the overwintering and early spring growth of the bee colony. In summer, the air in the colony can be strengthened, so that the box is not sultry, which can reduce the sub-bee heat caused by the sultry heat to a certain extent, so that the bee colony can maintain a strong colony.

Generally, under the natural premise of adopting a high-yielding queen bee and sufficient nectar source, bees reared in Dadant hives can achieve higher yields than those reared in other hives. But if one of these two conditions is not met, then it is not easy to add a successor box to the Dadant style beehive. In recent years, in order to make the Dadant-type beehives more suitable for beekeeping around the world, the descendants of Dadent changed the 11-frame Darden-type hives to 10-frame ones, thereby expanding the scale of the Dadent-type beehives used.

    Technological advances have had a significant impact on all sectors of the global economy, including beekeeping. In ancient times, in order to collect honey, people really wanted to destroy the hive. This method works, but it is undoubtedly a destructive method for dealing with hives. We should remember that for bees, their main job involves building hives and filling these storage rooms with honey. Therefore, any destruction of the hive means that the bees have to do extra work. Hives are the most valuable resource for beekeeping. With the development of technology, honey can now be extracted through efficient processes including centrifugal force. When it comes to extracting honey, a honey opener comes in handy.

What is honey cutting?

    Uncapping knife: A tool used to remove the wax cap of the honey spleen. When separating honey, the wax cap of the honey spleen is usually removed to separate the honey on the spleen. There are three types of honey cutting knives: simple, steam and electric heat. The knife body is made of stainless steel, about 250mm long, 35~50mm wide, single-edged or double-edged. When the simple honey cutting knife is used, two or three alternately immersed in hot water to heat the knife body to facilitate cutting the wax cover; The steam honey cutting knife body is heavy on the wall to heat the knife body through steam, and the steam generator provides steam when used; The body of the electric honey cutting knife is heavy on the wall, and the electric heating element and the temperature control element are installed inside, and the temperature of the knife body is automatically maintained at 70 ~ 80 ° C when used.

    Opening the lid is a process that involves removing the wax cap from the honeycomb. Automatic cappers are commonly used in large commercial operations. With a turnaround time of up to 600 frames per hour, this is perfect for such a huge business. However, small beekeeping businesses cannot invest in this expensive technology. A handheld electric lid opener or ordinary honey capper is sufficient for small beekeeping operations.

    No matter what technique you use, the beeswax cap should be removed to facilitate the harvesting of honey from the hive. Opening the lid allows the bees to reuse the same cells instead of building new ones. The energy that was originally used to build the new comb will now be used to fill the empty comb.

    Honey opener is an essential tool when it comes to honey picking. As mentioned earlier, you can choose between an automatic capper, an electric knife or a manual knife without electricity. Electric lid openers are the most effective, but they tend to be quite expensive compared to regular knives. However, they are all effective solutions, so you should stick to what you can afford. Those who are just starting out can start with a cheaper option and then move on to an expensive option. The manual lid opener will work well even in cold environments, but if you want to speed up the lid opening process, it's important to dip it in hot water. You can also use two knives at the same time, so that when one knife is cold, you can change one in hot water.

Characteristics of electric heating honey cutting knife

• Stainless steel: The blade body is stamped from 304 stainless steel. Both the blade cover and the blade are welded.
• Blade: Double-sided blade, easy to remove wax cover.
• Digital temperature: the temperature can reach 50-180 ° C, the heating is fast, and the cleaning is convenient.
• Efficiency: After powering on, the blade begins to heat. Great job. Slide along the outer edge of the frame and make a nice incision. It removes wax more effectively and saves you time and effort.

The role of beehive partitions

• 1. The most important function of the beehive partition is to help everyone to cut off the bee path in the beehive, that is to say, when the beehive wants to feed multiple groups of honey at the same time, it is necessary to use the partition to isolate the different bee colonies. independent space.
• 2. The beehive partition is actually the wall in the beehive, which is the same as our house. It is equivalent to the inner wall of the building. People can use the hive partition to isolate the bee colony somewhere in the beehive, and block the passage of the bees moving up, down, left and right in the bee colony, so as to avoid the situation of stealing bees.
• 3. The hive clapboard also has an important function, which is to allow bees to live and inhabit on the clapboard. After people insert the hive dividers, there will be a large number of bees staying and resting on it. Inserting beehive partitions in summer can have a good cooling effect and avoid high temperature in the beehive.
• 4. The insertion of the beehive partition is very convenient, because the standard beehive has a special slot for inserting the partition, and people only need to gently push the partition into the slot when needed.

      Since the invention of Lang's beehive in 1851, it has been continuously improved and developed through hundreds of years of beekeeping practice. The Lang's beehive currently used has a center-to-center distance of 35mm, a bee path between the frames, an upper bee path and a front and rear bee path of 8mm, and a lower bee path of 5mm (successive box). Lang's beehive not only meets the requirements of bee biology, but also adapts to modern scientific beekeeping production, and is recognized as the standard beehive for raising Western bees. It is believed that the reason why Lang's ten-frame beehive has become a standard beehive is mainly due to the following points in addition to the correct bee route and appropriate hive frame:

• First, there is sufficient space for spawning and storage of nectar.  The inner frame area (double-sided) of Lang's beehives is 8.6 square decimeters (about 7,000 worker beehives), each nest box has 10 frames, and the total area of the spleen is 86 square decimeters (about 7,000 worker beehives). hive 70,000). The queen bee of Italian honeybee can lay 2500 to 3000 eggs per day and night at the peak of egg laying. According to the calculation of laying 2,500 eggs per day and night, the queen bee needs 52,500 nest eggs in 21 days (a developmental cycle from egg to eclosion). Calculated on the basis of 814 worker honeycomb cells per square decimeter (double-sided) of the nest, the total required area of the nest is 64.5 square decimeters, which is approximately equal to the area of 7.4 Lang's nests. In this way, the spleen in the bottom box of a Lang's ten-frame beehive can not only satisfy the queen bee's egg laying, but also have 2.6 spleen cells for storing honey and pollen.
• Second, it can use the habit of bees to store up honey to produce separate honey and nest honey. The spleen surface of Lang's nest frame is short, and the queen bee with stronger egg laying power often expands the egg circle on the spleen surface to almost full frame at the peak of egg laying. The newly collected honey has to be stored in the successor box, which is beneficial to the reproduction and honey collection of bees, and after adding the king board, pure separated honey or nest honey can be produced.
• Third, can stack beehives to expand the hive. The hive frame used by Lang's beehive is a low-width frame, and the beehive box matched with it is lower and the center of gravity is more stable. When the bottom box cannot meet the needs of bee colony reproduction or honey storage, one or more secondary boxes can be stacked to expand the hive to meet the needs of bee colony reproduction and honey storage.
• Fourth, it is beneficial for the bee colony to overwinter. When the bee colonies raised in Lang's hives overwinter, a feed box is usually added to the box to provide sufficient overwintering feed. In winter, bees often gather at the top of the nest door, 50-75mm away from the upper beam. As the season progresses, the colony moves towards the rear of the hive after the colony has exhausted the feed superimposed on it and reaches the top. As the climate warms, the colony moves down and begins to lay eggs on the empty spleen of the bottom box. In this way, in the coldest period of the year, the bee colonies are located in the upper part of the beehive—the warmes t part, which can not only ensure the safe wintering of the bee colonies, but also reduce the consumption of feed.
• Fifth, it is convenient to lift the spleen for examination. The Lang's beehive adopts a low and wide frame, and the spleen surface is low. It is not easy to squeeze the dead bees when extracting and inserting the spleen, and it is also very convenient to turn the spleen.
• Sixth, it is conducive to the implementation of modern mechanized beekeeping technology. Lang's ten-frame beehives can be used for beekeeping, which is conducive to the use of modern mechanized equipment to complete a series of beekeeping production work. For example, using the following box to collect honey, use a bee blower to remove the bees in the honey box, use a honey cover machine to cut off the wax cover of the honey spleen, and use a large honey separator to separate the whole box of honey, etc.

How to Clean Different Types of Beekeeping Gloves

So, to better answer this question, let's first take a look at what are the common types of beekeeping gloves:

• Leather gloves (cowhide, pigskin, goatskin, etc.)
• Rubber, latex, neoprene and nitrile gloves
• Garden gloves, work gloves, etc.

Taking a quick look at the list, we can see that using rubber, latex or nitrile gloves means we don't have to do a lot of cleaning. You can easily replace them even after a hive inspection to avoid cross-contamination and keep yourself and the bees cleaner. Neoprene gloves can also be put in the washing machine.

With that, for now, we're left with leather and fabric gloves. They can get very messy over time. They cannot be replaced so easily and frequently, so they need to be cleaned frequently.

How to clean leather bee gloves?

Leather gloves are probably the most common type of gloves used in beekeeping. Plus, there's a good reason for that, as they offer perfect protection from stinging. The biggest downside is that they get really stiff after washing and sometimes you can crush the bees easily because you don't have great sensitivity while wearing them.

How to clean wax, honey and propolis from leather gloves:

1. Start by gently washing the leather gloves with some warm water and soap. This way, you can remove the accumulated honey, wax or propolis.

2. If there are spots that are hard to clean, you can try soaking the gloves in chlorinated water. Concentrated solutions can be found in many supermarkets or online, and can be diluted according to the directions on the bottle. This will break down the propolis and wax and will also sanitize the leather.

3. Rinse gloves and allow to dry. Allow them enough time to dry naturally. In the meantime, you can try wearing them for short periods of time to properly stretch and fit your hands.

4. While the leather gloves are still slightly damp, make sure to treat the leather with a suitable oil/conditioner to protect the surface and make the break-in period shorter. I've tried a few solutions, but leather honey works best. It's reasonably priced and I've heard the manufacturer refunds you if you're not satisfied.

How to clean fabric beekeeping gloves?

First off, let me first warn you never try to wipe a honey stain with a paper towel. This is a big no-no. It just causes the honey to smudge even more.

To clean wax, honey and propolis from fabric gloves:

1. First wipe off the excess honey from the gloves. You can use a spoon or spatula. Make sure to scrape off the excess honey from the outside and all the way to the inside. This will prevent the honey spots from spreading further. Wipe off excess honey spots without pushing into the fabric. If the stain starts to form a scab, try using a dull knife to remove it.

2. Rinse the stains off the gloves with hot tap water. If you can turn the glove inside out and work on the stain from the back. This will loosen the stain and make the removal process easier. Use a high pressure spray if you can.

3. Treat the stain with a pre-wash stain remover and prepare it for the next step. You can also try using a little liquid detergent on the stain. Let it sit for a few minutes before continuing.

4. Wash in the hottest possible water temperature and use a type of bleach that is safe to use on fabrics made from gloves. If the stain doesn't go away, try washing the gloves a few times before drying them.

Single bee colony feeding method

1. Empty follower box feeding water

It refers to adding a follower box to the beehive ready to overwinter, but the inside of the follower box is empty. If the temperature is too low, you can cover the king board with a covering cloth, and then uncover the corner of the covering cloth for ventilation, and pass water when feeding water. This uncovers a corner to operate. If the temperature is higher than 0 degrees Celsius, you can also let the bees expand upward without covering the king board with a cloth. The method is to place a shallow plate on the corner of the following box, and then use cotton or sponge that absorbs enough water to put it on the plate, and the bees will take water by themselves. In order to improve the resistance of the bees, a small amount of salt can be added to the water. 0.2%.

2. Feeding water at the nest door

Use a plastic beverage bottle, such as a mineral water bottle, fill the bottle with water, then prepare a cloth strip with strong water absorption, put one end into the nest door and the other end into the bottle, the water in the bottle will follow the cloth strip Flowing into the nest door, the bees will go to the nest door to fetch water when they are thirsty, and the water in the bottle will be added again when it is dry.

3. Feeder water supply

The feeder is a beekeeping tool specially designed for bees to feed or drink water. If you use a feeder to feed water, you can choose to put clean water in the daytime to collect water for the bees, and at night, you can put sugar water or honey water in the feeder to feed the bees. One of the ways people like it.

4. Feeding water from drinking water tank

You can choose a drinking tank to feed water. The specific method is to fill the tank with water and place it in front of the nest door, and then dip a small piece of cloth into the nest door and introduce it into the nest door to facilitate the bees to collect water and prevent the bees from drowning. When it is larger, the water can be changed once a day. In winter, the cloth can be fed with warm water to prevent the cloth from becoming hard. If the drinking tank or the cloth is found to be hard, it needs to be replaced.

Multi-swarm feeding method

1. Basin feeding water

If the scale of the bee farm is too large and occupies a lot of land, the bee colonies that are farther away may be farther away from collecting water, which will waste the physical strength of the bees. You can choose to put a basin filled with water in the middle of the bee farm. In the middle of the basin, put wooden sticks or small wooden sticks and other pads exposed to sleep, and place the bees to have a foothold when they collect water, so as to prevent the bees from drowning. Due to the large amount of water in the basin, attention should be paid to keeping the water source clean and changing the water frequently to avoid bees getting sick due to changes in water quality. It is easy to change the water in the basin and keep the water clean. Human workload, this method is suitable for small-scale bee farms.

2. Water tank feeding

Compared with the above water basin, the water tank can hold more water and is more convenient. First fill the water tank, then put some weeds, wooden boards and other floating objects on the water surface, and then place the water tank near the beehive. , When the worker bees find the water source, they will go to collect water; due to the large amount of water in the water tank, it is not realistic to change the water frequently to keep the water clean, so some aquatic plants, such as water hyacinth, can be appropriately planted to adjust the water quality. The water surface of the tank is exposed for a long time. Be careful not to be polluted by pesticides, fertilizers, etc., which will cause the death of bees. This method is suitable for small and medium-sized bee farms.

3. Dig trenches to feed water

If the bee farm is on a large scale, it needs a lot of clean water. You can dig a ditch with a length of 1 meter, a depth of 10 cm, and a width of about 20 cm near the bee farm. The bottom of the ditch is covered with cement, and the rougher the ditch, the better. It is enough to ensure no water leakage. After digging, pour half-ditch water into the ditch, and then put some weeds, wooden boards and other floating objects in the ditch. The layout of the field is to dig a few more trenches to form lines to cover the nearby bee colonies as much as possible. This method is suitable for medium to large bee farms.

Summary: Feeding water is an indispensable work in bee farming. There are many ways to feed bees, not limited to the above methods. Beekeepers can choose according to the actual operation. At the same time, pay attention to when feeding water. : One is to prevent bees from drowning when collecting water, the other is to ensure the quality of water quality, well water, spring water, tap water, etc. can be selected, and the third is to add 0.5% of salt to the water for bees to collect.

Beekeeping Tools Wood Wasp Sweep Brush Two Rows Of Horse Tail Hair New Bee Brush Beekeeping

The bee sweep is a special tool for brushing off bees. It is mainly used to clean the bees attached to the hive. Generally, the bee sweep is required to be soft and moderate to avoid brushing the bees. At present, the best ones on the market are made of horsehair or horsetail. Let's take a look at the reference price of the bee sweep and how to use it!

Note: The bee sweep is used to clean the bees attached to the hive, so the principle of not hurting the bees should be taken when purchasing. The above price of the bee sweep is only for reference. Please refer to the actual price when purchasing.

2. What are the materials of the bee sweep?

• Horse mane: Horse mane is the mane or tail hair of a horse, which is soft and moderate, and is very suitable for making bee sweeps.
• Fiber silk: silk fiber is a natural protein fiber, which is often used to make bee sweeps after processing.
• Pig bristles: Pig bristles refer to the bristles on the neck and back of pigs, and the bee sweeps made are worse than horse bristles.

3. How to use the bee sweep

• When the bee colony is unpacked and inspected, the bees on the comb can be brushed off by bees, so as to conduct a comprehensive management of the bee colony.
• After the honeycomb is taken out when the bee colony is cutting honey, many bees will be attached to the comb, which can be gently brushed off with a bee sweeper.
• If the queen bee is surrounded by the bee colony, you can use the bee sweeper to gently sweep away the bee colony to rescue the surrounded queen bee.

How to identify a bee queen

    The queen bee is the head of the colony, and most of the worker and drone bees are her descendants. The health of the queen bee is important to the entire hive, and if it grows old or dies without a new queen to replace it, the hive dies. In order for the hive to survive, beekeepers must understand how to distinguish queens from other bees, and mark them when they are found. Learn how to identify and mark queen bees based on behavior, location, and physical characteristics.

Method 1: Observation method

1. Find the biggest bee. The queen bee is the largest bee in the colony, and although drones are sometimes the same size or larger as the queen bee, they can still be distinguished by their size. Queen bees are longer and thinner than other bees

2. Check whether the abdomen is pointed. The abdomen of a bee refers to the back half of the body, near the tail spine. Bees have rounded abdomens, while queen bees have pointed abdomens. The queen bee can be easily identified by this method

3. Look for bees that spread their legs. Worker and drone bees hide their legs under their bodies and generally only see a small portion of the legs if viewed from above. The queen bee's legs are extended out, so she can see better.

4. Look for bees that do not have barbed stingers on their tails. There is only one queen bee per hive. If you find more than one bee that may be the queen bee, gently lift the thorax (middle body) of each bee and use a magnifying glass to observe the stingers on their tails. The spines are smooth and barbless.

Method 2: Find the right location

1. Find the larvae. Move each hive gently, looking for larvae. The larvae look like white maggots and usually come together in large clumps. Because the queen bee is responsible for laying eggs for the entire colony, it is most likely near the larvae.

Be especially careful when lifting the hive. Accidentally may kill the queen bee

2. Check the hidden places. The queen bee is generally not on the edge or outside of the hive, it is most likely in the deepest part of the hive away from outside disturbances. If it's a vertical hive, the queen may be somewhere on the bottom. If it is a horizontal hive, it can be found in the middle of the hive.

3. Observe unusual activity within the hive. The queen may be moving back and forth in the hive and may be nearby if any unusual activity within the hive is detected, such as bees or larvae gathering in uncommon places

Method 3: Distinguish by behavior

1. Watch out for the bees to make way for the queen bee. When the queen bee moves, the worker bees and drones make way for it. After the queen bee has passed, they will gather again at the place where the queen bee walked. Pay attention to the behavior of the bees starting to give way

2. Find a bee that does nothing. The queen bee is only responsible for laying eggs, which are fed by other bees in the hive. Look out for a bee that looks "lounging", it's most likely the queen bee.

3. Check if bees are feeding a bee. The other bees in the hive provide the queen with all the food she needs. Look for other bees that show concern and will feed it. Even if it's not a queen bee, it could be an immature queen bee or bee larva, but there's a good chance it will be a queen bee.

Method 4: Tag the Queen Bee

1. Pick the right paint color. Beekeepers will use a special color to mark the specific year of the queen bee's birth, which helps to quickly identify the queen bee and determine if a new queen bee needs to be replaced. Before marking, be sure to choose the right color. 

Any acrylic paint will do, many beekeepers will use model paint or paint pens.

• White paint is used to mark queens whose years end in 1 or 6.
• If the year ends with the number 2 or 7, use yellow.
• Years ending in 3 or 8 are in red.
• Those ending in 4 or 9 are in green.
• Those ending in 5 or 0 are in blue.

2. Prepare the paint in advance. If you hold bees with your hands for too long, they may struggle and even get injured, so be sure to have a marker ready before picking up a bee. Hold a paintbrush or paint dipped in paint in your other hand or on a small table next to the hive.

3. Gently grasp the queen bee's wings or thorax. Grab the queen bee's wings or thorax and lift it gently. Be very careful when grasping, if it starts to struggle, it may accidentally tear its wings or squeeze it.

Some apiaries sell a marking tool that can be used to mark the queen bee in a small plastic box, but it is not required.

4. Keep the queen bee above the hive at all times. If the queen bee falls accidentally, don't let it fall on grass or beekeeping equipment, it should fall back into the hive. So when you're done marking the queen bee, keep it above the hive at all times.

5. Apply a small dab of paint to the queen bee's chest. On the thorax between the queen bee's front legs, lightly paint a small dot with paint. This spot needs to be visible, but don't use too much paint, or the paint may dry out and stick to its wings and legs.

6. You can trim the queen bee's wing tips, but you don't have to. Some beekeepers prefer to mark by trimming the tips of their wings rather than marking them with coloring. If you choose this method, you should gently grab the queen bee, and then use a special tool to trim the tip quarter of the wing.

hint

• Check the hive regularly to make sure the queen bee is in the hive at all times.
• In addition to harvesting honey, you can also try harvesting royal jelly, which is also a nutritional product.

warn

• Always wear protective clothing when working with bees.
• If marking the queen bee by trimming the wings, only the ends of the wings should be trimmed. If you cut too much, the worker bees may think it's injured and kill it.
