Bees fly away easily during the summer vacation. What are the reasons and solutions?
First, during the summer vacation, bees flew to the first point.
So the first point is that bees lack honey powder sources, the external honey powder sources are insufficient, the weather is hot, and bees have many enemies. It is difficult for bees to collect honey powder sources, and the worker bees are not motivated. Then the bee colony lacks honey powder source, and the queen bee will stop production, so sometimes the spleen you see is empty, so in fact the bee colony without spleen is very unstable and may fly away at any time. Generally, bees like this lack of honey powder should feed some honey and appropriate pollen in time to keep enough honey powder. In summer, bees mainly check whether there are larvae and rotten seeds in honey area, powder area and seed area. In addition, try not to open the box frequently. Well, the second point is that there are many natural enemies of bees at this time, such as wasps, wasps, killer bees, frogs, birds and dragonflies. These are natural enemies of bees, especially wasps. Summer is just a developmental period of wasps, and its real outbreak time is in autumn. When bees are harassed by too many natural enemies, 99% of them will fly away, so apart from joking, adult worker bees will also be attacked by natural enemies in summer.
Second, during the summer vacation, the bees fled to the second point.
Bees lose their spleen faster. When it is found that there are fewer bees and more spleen, it is necessary to lose spleen in time to keep more bees and less spleen. If you have nothing to do, you can go to the hive to fight wasps in the morning and evening, and prepare a badminton racket, a big glass bottle and a bottle of wine. You can soak the wine with wasps.
Third, during the summer vacation, bees fled to the third point.
Then the third point, that is the harm of nest worms. In summer, when the outside temperature is too high, bees are seriously short of powder and density, and bees will be more irritable. If we interfere too much and open the box too much, bees are more likely to leave the spleen, which provides a chance for nest worms to get into the spleen, leading to the spleen of our bees being eaten and a large number of white-headed pupae appearing. The environment in the bee colony is occupied by nest worms, so bees can't survive. Most of these situations will fly away. Then the nest worm is mainly the old spleen cocoon in the grazing house, so if it is found that the nest spleen is old before the summer vacation, it should be cut off in time, or shed for a new one, clean up the sanitation in the box, and take heat insulation measures to reduce human interference.
Fourth, during the summer vacation, bees fled to the fourth point.
Then the fourth point is that bees are prone to get sick during the summer vacation, mainly because of high temperature rot, which has nothing to do with diseases caused by viruses. Then the main reason for the rotten seeds of bees is that the temperature in summer is too high, and the temperature of the spleen can't be adjusted normally, which leads to the decay of larvae. If this problem is not handled properly, high-temperature rotten seeds will cause bees to fly away easily. Therefore, heat insulation measures must be taken in summer, and the hive must be placed under the tree if possible. If there is a rotten area in the bee colony, cut off the empty spleen bee colony. If possible, we can give it a piece from the spleen of another hive. Bees love a child, and it is not easy to escape with the spleen, so as to ensure that bees are more than the spleen. Usually, you can put some water sources, a little light salt water and some stones around the hive to prevent bees from drowning and facilitate bees to tread water nearby.
