Have you ever learned about the beekeeping measures in the spring and autumn?
The spring and autumn seasons are the peak period for bee-killing and predators. All beekeepers should pay great attention to this stage to avoid serious injuries. The biggest damage is the condition of bee numbness.
Bee numbness is usually divided into two symptoms:
One is that the abdomen swells, the wings open and fall off, the sick bee's wings and body are not shaking properly, they can't fly, and often fall to the ground.
Another form is that the bee's abdomen does not swell, but the body's fluff is stripped, and they are often chased by old worker bees in the nest. After the sick bees fly out of the box, the guard bees are not allowed to fly back to the hive. After a few days, they will start to tremble. If they can't continue to fly, they will die.
(The above two symptoms appear in the same bee colony, but generally one of them is dominant.)
So for this disease, we can take the following measures to protect:
1. Breeding disease-resistant bee species There are two technical approaches, one is to directional culture within the same variety, and the other is to use breeding heterosis to select disease-resistant bee species.
2, breeding strong groups
(1) Keep the bee spleen proportional, in addition to the external artificial heat preservation and cooling measures of the hive, the appropriate density of the bees on the spleen should be maintained, and the bee path should be adjusted according to the external temperature.
(2) eliminate the old spleen and create new spleen
3. Measures to prevent bee pests and diseases
(1)Promote self-propagation and self-support In addition to the introduction of good varieties, do not buy bee colonies from infected areas to avoid mutual infection. The feed uses self-produced honey and pollen. .
(2) Reforming the feeding method Change the traditional sugar water mixing medicine to feed the bee medicine to pollen or sugar powder to feed the bee.
(3) Prevention of bee pesticide poisoning Understand the situation of pesticide spraying in surrounding farmland and take emergency measures to prevent or reduce pesticide poisoning of bees.
