    a lof of queens over the years will head to the very bottom of a frame and as you rotate it to view the other side, they transition to the other side, lol. Its like the light is chasing them. A lot do jump to the bottom of the box as well.

    Hi, when adding new frames to the boxes to avoid swarming is there a specific type of frame we should be swapping out with (the old one that is in the box). Like a honey frame, brood frame, etc, thanks.

    Over here in North Carolina. I had queen excluders on in spring in the flow, and my bees wouldn't build above it. i pulled them off, and they started drawing. So i agree with you. My queen excluder now is capped honey in the super i leave for the bees. Thank you for sharing.

    Thank you. Great video on lots on subjects. Your schooling shared and the lessons with tips from your own experiences at work and living in Hawaii on how a new person or advanced one on the way of helping and building our bees up along is always a welcome to hear about or see. Management of Honeybees can be so rewarding as any other animal husbandry that I had the chance to encounter while raising a family with wildlife and livestock around while my kids grew up in the mountains. A life with Beekeeping and being proactive with them was a favorite and still is. Thanks

    You are right in that I too use somewhat smaller round holes like 3/4" to 1-1/4" inch in the top of my boxes for ventilation and heat control. For both of my medium 10 frame honey supers and 10 frame double deep brood chambers, I use wooden cleats 3/4" x 2-1/4" x 16-1/4" front and back as my hand holds. That gives me a better grip to pick up boxes and stand them up as I do inspections. It also provides the bees with a landing place to stop before going into the hive, a second to rest, to prepare to go out foraging, or give the chance to those who are guarding or fanning a little. I drill the holes in the middle or off the center of the box front and back, about a 1/2" above the cleat but 2 to 3 inches below the top of the frame rest. I have plastic plugs to close up these upper entrances for the winter when it gets too cold out and I think there might be a lot of heat loss. They usually propalize up that area anyhow as needed for themselves. Thou I do install 1/8" hardware cloth stapled to the inside in the back. This is so when I lift my boxes up or off, looking only at the front of the hive to where I grip my hand on the cleat to the side away from holes I don't have to worry about crushing bees, possibly getting stung, or having their defensive pheromones go sour on me. I prefer not to wear gloves. I also have 3/4" inch bee ways on the sides and back of my bottom boards for the entrance bees so they have better ability to fan heat out and circulate fresh air into the to keep it cooler. I can always put different lengths of 3/4" wood reducers in case of robbing or when cold windy weather and rain sets in. So long comment but hope this information is useful to someone else out there. It's just something that works for me and the area I live in. Thanks for your short talking about heat in our hives here and needing to have a close abundant water source nearby. Hope you all are having a successful summer with your honeybees. 🐝

    Ive had hell with hive Beatles this year. Ive treated the ground in my bee yard with grub killer, and put several swifter cloths on the frames tops, finally getting them under control. Didn't have much problem until I brought in a cutout from an oak tree. I was buisy at the time and didn't care for them as I should have, they got smiled out. A few weeks later I had large numbers of Beatles in all my hives. This is the reason I used the grub killer on the ground, won't help today but will help in the months ahead. I now have a bug zapper near my bee yard to control moth numbers. It's been a wet year after 3 years of drought and bugs have gone crazy.

    • @BeekeepingMadeSimple
      @BeekeepingMadeSimple 12 днів тому

      the small hive beetle will takeover a hive very fast! I'm glad the grub killer works for you. It is something I forgot to talk about because I can't use it where my bees are. My hives are on other people's properties around the island. Having a screened bottom with oil pan below has really been a lifesaver for me.

    Hi miss one question can bees collect enough nectar and pollen from coconut trees so that they can be on a honey flow on that crop . Am from St. Lucia 🇱🇨 and there are a lot of coconut trees here.

    • @BeekeepingMadeSimple
      @BeekeepingMadeSimple 12 днів тому

      I don't know how much nectar the coconut palm trees produce, but I do know that the bees LOVE them. Since the flowers are so high up it's hard to see if they're taking nectar or pollen, but I can hear the palms buzzing when I stand under them. My guess is that they must produce an okay amount of nectar because the bees I have by the ocean bring in a ton of honey when the Mesquite trees bloom. When that bloom is over, the palms are really all they have. The hives aren't bursting with honey like from the mesquite harvest, but they are stable for the rest of the year.

A box of 150 towels of the H700 costs a whopping $72 bucks. This is probably not worth risking $72 bucks unless it is confirmed that it is really the same dine-a-max product. Has anyone tried them??

      It would have! This hive was on a client's property over an hour from my house and there are no beekeeping supply places in our state, so it would have been at least a week or two before I would have been able to do that. 3 day shipping does not exist for the big island, BUT a great idea if you have a bee escape on hand.
