Summer beekeeping precautions.

Summer beekeeping precautions.
1. Summer beekeeping should pay attention to the adjustment of the nest spleen, the specific operation is to take out the beehive more than the honey spleen, the waste nest spleen and the spleen to facilitate the air circulation, the reason is that the beehive is overcrowded not only conducive to ventilation and heat dissipation, serious and may even suffocate the bee colony, when taking out the honey spleen must give the bee colony enough food, otherwise the bee colony is easy to abandon the nest due to the lack of honey storage in the nest.
2. Summer beekeeping should pay attention to the prevention and control of stolen bees, there are two main reasons for the occurrence of stolen bees; The first is that there is no honey source for bees to collect, and the strong swarm can only steal the honey store of the weak swarm in order to survive. The second is the poor management of beekeepers to cause bee theft, such as feeding bees when the feed is spilled on the bee farm and not cleaned in time, the spilled feed will induce bee theft.
3. Summer beekeeping should pay attention to the prevention of disease, once the outbreak of disease will affect the development of the group, and even affect the whole bee in serious cases.
4. Summer beekeeping should pay attention to subsidizing feeding, the reason is that the honey source is relatively scarce in summer, and the high temperature weather is not conducive to the collection of bees out of the nest, and the bees with insufficient honey storage should be subsidized feeding in time, and the feeding time is recommended in the evening or at night, so as to avoid the occurrence of stolen bees to stop feeding once the stolen bees occur, and then feeding after the stolen bees stop.
