1. What is the reason why bees make nests in the hive?

Adding a proper amount of honeycombs can reduce the phenomenon of bees randomly building honeycombs in the beehive, disperse the bee colony, effectively reduce the occurrence of bee swarming, and encourage the queen bee to lay more eggs, strengthen the bee colony, and lay the foundation for the large honey flow period. At the same time, clean up the random honeycombs in the beehive and the wax residue at the bottom of the beehive to reduce the occurrence of nest insects.

2. I have a hive of bees at home. In the afternoon, they always make a lot of noise outside the hive. Is it because of the nest splitting? What measures should I take?

It is not swarming. It should be the nest recognition learning of 6-7 day old bees. Swarming usually takes place in the afternoon of the same day or the next day after the rain, between 12-15 o'clock. The habits of Chinese and Italian bees are also different. If it is Italian bees, bees without more than ten combs will not swarm. As for Chinese bees, it is indeed the swarming season around the Qingming Festival. However, you can add a queen excluder, so that the queen bee cannot fly out. Or you can cut one third of the queen bee's wings short, so that when the queen bee flies out, it will fall at the entrance of the nest, and the bees will surround it, and you can pick it up.

3. Will bees fly to the old hive to eat the honeycombs?

Bees will not fly to the old hive to eat the honeycombs, because the purpose of the bees going there is to collect honey, and the honeycombs are not the purpose of the bees, and they will not eat the honeycombs. They just smell the smell of the honeycombs and think there is a source of honey, so bees will not fly to the old hive to eat the honeycombs.

I'll definitely eat the spleen.
