SMALL HIVE BEETLES, Hive Beetle trap filling,installing on honey bee hives.Video,Georgia Beekeeper John Pluta installing Small Hive Beetle traps into beehives.CLICK for more at georgiabees.blogspot.com Controlling small hive beetle numbers lowers beehive stress, possible CCD,a colony collapse disorder symptom Ga Beekeeping hive beetle control. Beekeepers MUST kill the adult small hive beetles before egg and larva stage. Larvae eat thru honey comb in search of bee pollen making honey leak and ferment,called sliming. Bees then abscond from hive leaving a sticky mess even other bees barely rob. To clean up I put boxes over ant mounds to begin removing crud,then a few days in the sun to dry up honey slime. This is going to be a major beekeeping problem if not controlled in states like Florida,Georgia,North South Carolina,Alabama,Mississippi,Tennessee and Louisiana. Other states Will get them,forget cold weather,they winter at edge of honeybee cluster just fine.

Why Buy a Beekeeping Guide?

Leave a Comment 

Beekeeping doesn’t always produce massive profits for a beekeeper but will always give many benefits and is a lot of fun. But a person wanting to get started with beekeeping can get confused with all of the details needed to move forward. Purchasing a beekeeping guide provides the best way to clear up that confusion.

With a beekeeping guide in hand, the novice beekeeper will find the answers to almost all questions needed to move forward. That information gives answers to questions required before getting into this fascinating hobby as well instruction on just about every topic a new beekeeper may need to know about.

First of all, you need to find out if beekeeping is allowed where you live. Luckily, most locations do not prohibit keeping and managing a beehive(s). When honeybees are at work over a space they give many more pluses than minuses. Are you aware of the fact that honeybees living and working in a space tend to keep more aggressive stinging insects like hornets and wasps from taking over? In addition, honeybees provide the well known benefit of pollinating great numbers of flowers and crops.

A starting question that comes up quite a bit from people wanting to get started in beekeeping is what’s the best source to buy beekeeper supplies? It’s tough to go into a place trying to buy equipment you don’t know much about. How do you know what to buy? A beekeeping guide details the specific beekeeper supplies required along with potential sources used by experienced beekeepers.

Initially, a beginner has thoughts of what supplies you have to have to get started and an idea of how to use them. But beekeeping is totally different from other hobbies. Anyhow, building a model plane won’t get you stung.

Bees can inflect stings and pain on us humans. When you’re a beginning beekeeper you may not be knowledgeable about the right way to use the beekeeping supplies or to work with the bees. The beekeeping guide can provide that training.

One giant advantage to managing a beehive is the ability to enjoy the delicious honey made by the bees. However, without any instruction can a beginner really have any idea of how to gather honey? The honey production and harvesting process is not an exact science.

The honey supply will vary between seasons with some having a large supply while others will not be so plentiful. As a beginning beekeeper, that fact may not be known resulting in questioning procedures during lean supply times.

Just like a lot of things, many beekeeping components can flourish using common sense. However, the other parts should be taught. If the novice beekeeper does not have the assistance of a beekeeping guide to provide the correct procedures to follow, their beehive, along with the honeybees, may not thrive and survive.

Why Is A Beekeeping Suit Necessary?

Leave a Comment 

The bees that are in a hive are neither every aggressive nor are they very docile. They can become aggressive if they are made to become so. This makes them dangerous at times. The stings that they have are the best defense for them. It is also the thing that makes the beekeeper to be scared of them at times. The bees can inflict a lot of damage to the beekeeper if the protective gear is not adequate. Many beekeepers may even get reactions or allergies after a bee sting. If there are many bee stings, then it can be very painful. This is the reason why beekeeping clothing is needed. Many beekeepers think that the more number of stings they get, the more immunity they get to the stings. This may be true to an extent, but the pain is unbearable at times and protective gear will also help to protect certain parts of the body that are very vulnerable, like the face.

Even those who are very experienced in beekeeping may need protective beekeeping clothing. This includes the veil, the hat, the gloves and the suit. Each is mad specifically for beekeeping and has a particular important role in the beekeeping. The gloves are essential in spite of the fact that the hand needs to do delicate activities while collecting the honey, but if the bee stings on the hand, then it can become very painful that the beekeeper is not able to carry on with the work. Many beekeepers feel that they can remove a sting from the hand by just rubbing against the sting, but of the face is stung, the same cannot be done. The beekeeper will need a mirror to remove the sting. To prevent stings on the face, a veil is used. This allows the beekeeper to look at what is happening, but it protects the face from the bees. So the veil is another important aspect of the beekeeping clothing that is used by almost all beekeepers as no one likes a sting on the face.

The beekeeping clothing also consists of a beekeeping suit. This is very similar to a jumpsuit and protects all the other parts of the body that may be exposed to the bees and their sting. The beekeeping suit needs to be light in color because it is in contrast to the usual enemies of the bees like bears that are furry and have a dark color. The beekeeping suit should also be very smooth for the beekeeper to confuse the bees into thinking that no predators are around to collect the honey. The smoothness of the suit also helps the bee stings that may be present on it to be removed very easily. The beekeeping suit should be cleaned or washed after using it each time because the bees emit a pheromone along with the sting. This helps the bees to anticipate danger the next time the suit is used. So washing it will remove all traces of the scent. Washing the suit in vinegar is the best method of removing all the scent.
