Since 1997, large-scale crawling bees have often occurred in late autumn in western Liaoning, resulting in a decline in the number of bee colonies in the region, rather than an increase. Now many bee friends talk about the discoloration of "crawling bees", helpless, and can only watch the swarm plummet or climb the light. In the face of such a serious autumn bee crawl, the author talks about how to prevent bee crawling and do a good job in the management of the late autumn bee colony.
First, disinfect the hive, nest spleen from the spring to start to disinfect the hive, nest spleen (with formaldehyde, strong chlorine fungicide, or bacteria can be killed), each time the spleen should be disinfected after adding, the purpose is to control the bacteria to a minimum. When managing, the nest spleen in the box should not be too loose, the number of bees in each spleen should not be less than 80%, the foot spleen is the best; the feed (honey powder water) should be sufficient, and the spleen should be added in a timely manner according to the group situation. Colonies found to have reptile bees are given some medicine in moderation (after the same method). In this way, the bee colony will not climb bees until late autumn, or the number of crawling bees will be very small and will not become a disaster.
Second, the feed in the box will be tightened in early September, so that the bees are more than the spleen (7 boxes of bees put 5 spleens), and the large honey spleen is all raised, leaving less honey spleen and empty spleen, and then reward feeding, the first two days to feed more, after feeding less.
Third, feed the appropriate amount of drugs In the prize feeding, you can add some antipyretic and detoxification drugs to help digestion, such as rhubarb soda tablets, detoxification injection or anti-creeping bee No. 1, bee 100 grams, crawling bee kang, etc. Rhubarb soda tablets 1 to 2 tablets per group, each heat and detoxification solution is mixed with 600mL of water, and the finished liquid can be sprayed directly into the bee road. Before feeding the wintering feed, rhubarb soda tablets and antipyretic detoxification injection can be used alternately. Anti-creeping bee No. 1, bee 100 grams, crawling bee kang, etc. should be fed according to the instructions.
Fourth, the bee colony should be controlled in time after the break the bee colony More than 5 boxes of the bee colony, should be added to the empty relay box, all bee paths are adjusted to 2cm, remove the powder spleen.
Fifth, in time to tighten the spleen bee colony around September 20 guan wang, October 1 to feed the winter feed, after feeding the feed spleen out, the box of semi-honey spleen or less honey spleen withdrawal, to achieve the bee spleen proportional or bee more than the spleen, to avoid the future encounter temperature drop and the occurrence of "peeling death" phenomenon. After October 20, choose the good weather to promote the excretion once, and then enter the normal wintering management period.
