CATDOLL: How to prevent and control nest insects in bee colony breeding?

1. How to prevent and control nest insects in bee colony breeding?

Among all bee species, Chinese bees are most susceptible to beetle damage. The most susceptible season for Chinese bees to beetle damage is the hot summer weather. The other bee species are all caused by asymmetric beehives, old honeycombs, and garbage at the bottom of the beehive that is not cleaned up.

To prevent beekeeping from insects, it is best to take preventive measures. Check the bees regularly, clean the wax and garbage under the beehive, and check every seven days. If you find that the honeycomb is old, you should remove it in time. If there are brood, try to move it out and cut it after the brood is out. If you find that there are too few bees and too many nests, you should forcibly adjust and cut the nests, keep the bees and protect the nests symmetrically. As for the honeycombs with brood, you can press them out of the partition and remove them after the brood is out.

How to prevent and control nest moths in bee colony breeding? You can use medication to treat nest moths on the basis of prevention. There are nest moth medicines and nest moth wood chips available in beekeeping information stores on the market and on the Internet. You can buy them for prevention and control and use them according to the instructions.

In addition to drug treatment, you can feed the bee colonies with nest worms with large amounts of white sugar syrup. After the bees fill the honeycombs with a large amount of syrup, the nest worms will naturally crawl out of the honeycombs and fall to the bottom of the box. At this time, you can check once a day and help the bees clean up the nest worms. As for the amount of white sugar to drive out the nest worms, it depends on the number of honeycombs, and you should feed until each nest is full of syrup.

Well, there are many ways to prevent and control nest insects in bee colony breeding. Some people feed them with garlic and syrup, some spray salt water at the bottom of the beehive, and some use star anise, camphor, camphor bark, etc. However, it is still more practical to keep the bees and spleens symmetrical, with more bees than spleens, and clean the garbage at the bottom of the beehive frequently to prevent nest insects.

Please ask more questions and leave comments if you have any questions. I hope my simple answers can help you. I wish you a happy holiday and thank you for sharing.

2. The most effective method of controlling nest insects, how do nest insects enter the beehive

answer

1. Bee colony management: If you want to kill nest insects, you can keep a certain amount of honey and powder on the honeycomb during beekeeping, and choose high-quality queen bees. 2. Killing insect eggs: From late November to early December every year, and from early March to early April of the following year, the bee farm must be cleaned so that the box can be cleaned. 3. Drug control: You can soak the beehive and empty honeycomb in 5% lime water or 1% caustic soda solution for 30 hours, then clean it and dry it in the sun.

1. The most effective method for nest insect prevention and control

1. Bee colony management

(1) If you want to kill nest worms quickly, you must always keep enough honey and pollen on the honeycomb during beekeeping, and you must also choose high-quality queen bees.

(2) This can enhance the genetic advantages within the apiary and improve the ability of the bee colony to resist diseases and insect pests. In addition, new combs must be replaced and old ones eliminated in a timely manner, which can also effectively eliminate the living space of nest insects.

2. Kill insect eggs

(1) Generally, the apiary can be thoroughly cleaned from late November to early December each year and from early March to early April of the following year, so that the hives can be thoroughly cleaned.

(2) Then boil water and pour it on the bottom of the box to kill the eggs of the moth. Alternatively, during the coldest time of winter, place the box combs outdoors to be exposed to frost, which will freeze the larvae of the moth to death.

3. Drug prevention and treatment

(1) You can soak the beehives and empty honeycombs in 5% lime water or 1% caustic soda solution for 30 hours, then clean them and dry them. This can effectively eliminate the overwintering nest insects hidden inside.

(2) You can also put about 10 star anise fruits in each box to prevent the breeding of nest insects.

2. How do nest insects enter the beehive?

1. The wax moth is the larvae of the wax moth, which usually lays its eggs in the cracks of the beehive or in the wax scraps. After the larvae are hatched, they will crawl onto the honeycomb, grow up slowly, and become more and more destructive.

2. Generally, killing insect eggs can effectively prevent the formation of nest insects in the beehive. Because the larvae and eggs of wax moth are mainly laid in the honeycomb or the gaps in the beehive, killing the eggs and insects can effectively prevent nest insects. For example, you can use an alcohol blowtorch to bake the beehive to kill the eggs and insects hidden in the gaps of the beehive.

3. Nest moths are afraid of light. If exposed to sunlight, they will hide on the backlit side of the honeycomb because of their fear of light. However, adult wax moths have a certain tendency to phototropism, so using black light to lure and kill wax moths is also a way to prevent and control nest moths. First, design the black light into two layers, the outer layer of the grid should be slightly smaller than the size of the bees, so as to prevent the bees from flying into the light. The inner layer must be connected to a power source to kill the wax moths attracted by the light.

3. My bees are infested with nest mites. Is there any way to remove and prevent it?

1. Killing with black light: Black light is used to kill wax moths according to their mating habits at night. The black light is designed with two layers, the outer layer's holes are smaller than the size of bees to prevent bees from flying into the light, and the inner layer is connected to a power source to kill wax moths. Artificially synthesized hormones can also be added to the attractant core.

2. Set up a security gate: Based on the difference between the infrared light reflected off the bees and the wax moth, use the logic gate circuit principle to control the opening and closing of the circuit, operate the laser to kill the wax moth at the nest door, and use the laser head of an old optical drive to emit the laser.

3. Bacillus sodejin: The conidia crystals of Bacillus sodejin will release toxic substances to kill the wax moth larvae after being ingested by the wax moth larvae, but it is harmless to bees. In order to achieve long-term prevention and control effects, the spores of Bacillus sodejin can be pressed into the nest foundation, and the wax moth larvae will be poisoned to death when they come to the nest to cause harm.

4. Release parasitic wasps: Parasitic wasps will lay their eggs in the bodies of wax moth larvae. The young wasps survive by sucking the body fluids of wax moths, causing the wax moth larvae to die. Before the peak period of nest moth damage arrives, place the cultivated parasitic wasps into the beehive and allow them to parasitize, lay eggs, reproduce, and suck the body fluids of wax moth larvae until they die.

5. Hanging nest insect green wood chips: Hanging nest insect green wood chips during the non-production period can prevent the growth of nest insects and reduce the occurrence of nest insects. For example, hang them once in spring in March and July. You can use the nest insect green wood chips according to the instructions. This kind of thing can be bought elsewhere on the Internet

When there are brood worms, worker bees will start to bite the honeycombs and the brood worms will fall to the bottom of the hive. Get rid of the bad honeycombs and make sure there are more bees than honeycombs. Clean the bottom of the hive every two or three days, and then add honeycombs after the bees have cleaned up the brood worms. If the situation is particularly serious, replace all the honeycombs! The way to prevent this is to keep more bees than honeycombs for a long time!

There is no cure, but too many bees than spleen can be prevented

4. What should I do if there are insects in the beehive?

That's the nest worms. You can place 2 to 3 nest worm clearing wood chips. If the effect is still not obvious, then you can use sulfur to fumigate. The method is as follows: shake off the bees first, place the air blanket on the second layer of an empty box, light the sulfur and place it on the first layer, then cover and fumigate for about an hour. If the effect is still not good and there are too many nest worms, then you can directly replace the honeycomb.
