CATDOLL: Can the bee hives be moved in winter?

1. Can the bee hives be moved in winter?

I don't know why you are moving the beehive. If you just want to move it, then it's ok. It's best to wait until the bee colony is stable before moving it, because when the colony is unstable, bees will definitely fly out, and you can't move it at this time. Wait until the bee colony is stable before moving it, and move it all at once, so that when the bees come out again the next year, they will recognize the nest again. Be careful to be gentle, otherwise it will endanger the safety of the queen bee! !

1. The beehives can be moved in winter, but it is not recommended to move the beehives in winter. The reason is that during the wintering period, the bee colonies will clump together in the beehives to resist the cold winter. If there is clear and warm weather, the bee colonies will temporarily disperse and move out of the nest. After the beehives are moved, the worker bees that move out of the nest will often starve to death or freeze to death outside because they cannot find the hive. Therefore, it is generally not recommended to move the beehives after the Chinese bees clump together in the beehives in winter.

2. Bees are completely capable of overwintering outdoors. In fact, a bee colony with a strong strength and sufficient honey storage can withstand temperatures as low as -40 degrees Celsius. Therefore, there is no need to move the beehives in winter. At this time, what beekeepers need to do is to keep the beehives properly warm to reduce the activity of the worker bees. At the same time, they must closely observe the honey storage in the beehives. If the honey storage is insufficient, they must replenish the feed for the bee colony at noon on a sunny day.

Try to move the hive when the weather is warm. How to move the beehive: 1. If you move the hive directly after dark, place an empty hive at the original location and collect the bees. 2. In the evening of the next day, seal the door of the empty hive where the bees are clustered, move the hive and the bees to the new location, open the hive cover, and the bees will follow the new hive bees back to the hive with the queen colony. 3. After that, you will see a small number of bees flying back to the original location. You don't need to pay attention to them. You will only see those bees circling there for a few times and then fly back to the new location. 4. After three days, you will see even fewer returning bees.

2. I want to bring bees home from 500 kilometers away. Is that ok?

It is totally possible; but you should pay attention to close the bees at night and move them back quickly. You must open the door a little lower, otherwise the bees will easily run around;;; If you agree, please don’t forget to accept it

3. Can I move my little bees from the seventh floor to the first floor?

This will cause the loss of some bees, because the bees have already gotten used to being on the seventh floor. When you suddenly move the hive away, they will not be used to it, so some bees will fly back to the seventh floor. So there are two ways: 1. Move the hive floor by floor, so that the bees will gradually adapt. 2. Move it to the first floor at once, and then take the combs every evening to bring the bees on the seventh floor back to the first floor, until no bees fly back to the seventh floor.

4. There is a rural saying that goes, "When bees move, bamboos bloom; if they don't, they die, or they go bankrupt." Does this make sense?

The beautiful scenery of the countryside is like a never-fading picture. Every bit of daily life often makes me yearn for and miss the countryside. As a person who grew up in the countryside and ate rural food, I have a very special feeling for the countryside. Today, I am grateful for the talents that the countryside has given me. In my memory, I often sat on the doorstep with adults to enjoy the cool air, listening to the old people telling all kinds of interesting things. There are also some wonderful proverbs in the stories, which I still remember. For example, the following proverb "Bees move, bamboos bloom; either die or lose money."

When I first heard this proverb, I was a little confused. How could bees and bamboos be related to the moving prodigal daughter? Curious, I asked the old man again and again. After listening to the old man's explanation, I woke up from my dream. Then let's talk about the meaning of this proverb briefly.

Everyone knows bees very well. They are our indispensable friends, pollinating trees, crops, and plants. But do you know that each bee can only fly about 4-8 kilometers a day, and its effective range of activity is only within a radius of 2.5 kilometers from the hive, so bees will not easily move. Once they move, there are only two reasons: one is that there is no honey to be collected in this place, and the other is that the bees feel that this place is not safe.

Therefore, in rural areas, the old people also believe that if bees migrate, it means something bad has happened, because in most cases, bees migrate because there is no honey to collect in the place, the flora is not rich, or the temperature is not suitable for bees. Of course, now it is just the old people's superstition, because bees will migrate if they are tired of a place or their burrows are disturbed by other animals.

It is not a common thing for bamboo to bloom. Some people often lament that they have never seen or even heard of bamboo blooming. Therefore, in rural areas, the elderly also believe that bamboo blooming is a sign of drought, because bamboo blooming is sometimes accompanied by drought, indicating that nothing can be gained. Now it seems that this is completely wrong. There is no need to be scared.

From this proverb, we can see that bees moving and bamboos blooming are rare, so people think that this means something bad will happen. And then they panic and feel anxious. And this situation can be completely explained by science. However, although this proverb has a bit of feudal superstition, it can be seen from this proverb that people hope for a happy life in the future and look forward to beautiful things.

It makes sense, and it was also summarized by ancient people through their experience in daily life, so it also has corresponding scientific basis.

This sentence makes sense. Many rural proverbs are actually the result of many years of summary and they all make sense to a certain extent.

There is no reason. Such a statement is incorrect and has no basis. These natural phenomena are related to many factors.
