Whether you are raising Italian bees or bees in China, there will be bee colony diseases, and it is difficult for a group of bees to develop once they are sick. What diseases of the bee colony will be found in the process of beekeeping? Should these diseases be diagnosed? What methods should be used for prevention and treatment?

1. Stomach disease.
Stomach sickness is also a type of common disease of crawling bees; it is very common when keeping Italian bees. Characteristics: The bee has a large abdomen, cannot fly and crawls on the ground.
Reason: The weather is bad and the excretion is not done in time, this situation is more serious when pollen is eaten.
Prevention and treatment: The weather is bad, and the bees are not stimulated to eat when the temperature is low, and feeding is not compulsory. Once there are pot-bellied bees, let the bees go out to excrete in time at noon when the temperature is high.
2. Steal Bees:
Characteristics: The bee colony is stolen by other bee colonies or the colony is stolen from other bee colonies. The body of the robber bee is black and shiny, the action is very exciting. The bees at the door of the thieves' hive were in disarray, with a strong sense of attack information, and there were many dead bees on the ground.
Reasons: Chinese bees are very thieving, honey sources are lacking in the outside world, the sealing measures of stolen bee colonies are not done well, or unreasonable behavior of beekeepers is provoked.
Prevention and treatment: Stealing bees is not a disease, but a release of the thieves' emotions, which is nothing more than a snack to eat. Therefore, we generally make sure that the hive has honey, do not open the box indiscriminately and brazenly feed during the lack of honey, and the sealing of the hive can be effectively avoided.

3. Nest disease.
Nest disease is one of the most common diseases of Chinese bees.
The characteristics are: 1. The spleen is bitten until it rots and the insects fall directly, this situation is very serious. 2. New bees appear with missing arms and legs.
3. A large number of white-headed pupae and farting pupae appeared.
4. The color of the nest spleen becomes darker and has a feeling of depression.
5. The bees are very restless and excited.
6. There are constantly bees biting the nest and carrying residual bee pupae.
Reasons: nest eggs are dormant; honeycomb storage is insufficient; the honeycomb structure is unbalanced and there are fewer bees than the spleen which cannot effectively protect the spleen.

Prevention and Treatment:
1. Bee protection is more than the spleen;
2. Make sure the honey is full of spleen;
3. Take the medicine for nesting insects in advance for prevention.
4. Change the nests once or twice a year, not the old ones.
5. Do a good job of disinfecting hives and combs.
