CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to collect wild bees and raise them at home (How to collect wild bees and raise them at home)

1. How to catch wild bees and raise them?

1 Wild bees can be caught and raised. 2 You can use catching tools, such as beehives and traps, to lure the bees in. It should be noted that excessive disturbance should be avoided when catching to prevent bees from attacking, and protective equipment should be used. 3 When breeding, it is necessary to provide suitable space and environment to ensure that the bees have sufficient food sources and living conditions. At the same time, it is necessary to manage and care for the bees reasonably according to their habits and needs to ensure the health and production capacity of the bees.

2. How to capture bees in caves and take them home to raise?

The simplest method is to dig the cave slowly, cut the honeycombs, put the frames in, and then put them in the prepared beehive. Then find the queen bee, put the queen bee and some worker bees in the box, and cover the box. Cut off the remaining honeycombs, drive the worker bees out of the nest, and wait for the remaining bees to enter the beehive. Or you can directly sweep the bee mass into the beehive.

2. Cave Conquest Method

If you encounter a bee colony in a cave, and the entrance to the cave cannot be dug open for the time being, first find several entrances and keep only one. Prepare a glass tube or plastic tube with a diameter of 2 cm and a length of more than 10 cm. It must be transparent. Put a little gauze in the tube to prevent the bees from crawling out. Put one end into the hole, light a cigarette, and then put one end of the cigarette into the mouth and the other end into the tube. Blow smoke into the nest, about two will be enough. Block the tube mouth and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, then pull out the gauze in the tube and connect one end to the prepared beehive (the honeycomb must be prepared in advance in the box). The worker bees will slowly crawl into the box with the glass tube. At this time, you should pay attention to observe whether the queen bee has come out. When it is almost out, you can move the beehive. Then think of other ways to dig the hole, cut the honeycomb, and then adjust the situation in the box. This method does not need to worry about hurting the worker bees and queen bees when digging.

3. Tree Hole Expulsion Method

There are bee colonies that have made their homes in tree holes, and they are at high places. The commonly used methods of taming them are very difficult. You can make a bee trap with old gauze, and prepare transparent tubes and mothballs. Climb to the hole and find a suitable position. Throw the mothballs into the hole, and connect one end of the tube to the hole, and the other end to the bee trap. Be careful to tie it tightly, and don't let it go wrong at the critical moment. Then pat the tree trunk to cause vibrations in the nest, so that the bee colony feels a sense of crisis, and use the odor to force it out quickly. After the bees have all come out, you can tie the cage mouth and go back to the box to raise them.

3. How to bring wild bees home to raise?

When collecting the worker bees, try to let the worker bees crawl out cleanly. When there are no worker bees crawling out, seal the hole with a small amount of paper. This is to prevent the field bees from returning to the tree hole. At the same time, pay attention to the queen bee when collecting the worker bees. When you see the queen bee, gently catch her and put her into the collection box.

After the bee colony is collected, close the door of the collection box and take the bee colony home. After returning home, the bee colony can be transferred to a normal beehive for breeding. Note that the escape prevention sheet should be inserted at the entrance of the nest to prevent the bee colony from escaping.

At the same time, feeding should be done well. When the bee colony starts to build honeycombs and lay eggs, it means that the bee colony has basically stabilized, and then it will enter the normal management mode. If conditions permit, some capped honeycombs can be added to the newly collected bee colony to facilitate the recovery of the bee colony. For those without a queen bee, a new queen should be introduced in time or egg and larvae honeycombs should be added for the transformation of worker bees.

Additional information:

When collecting bees, spray a small amount of smoke first to make the bee colony clump together. Then you can use a knife to cut the honeycomb and put it into the beehive. After cutting the honeycomb, use a bee broom to sweep the bee colonies into the collection box. At the same time, seal all other holes with mud and keep one main exit.

When spraying smoke, pay attention to observation. When you see a lot of smoke coming out of the hole, stop spraying smoke. When you see a large number of worker bees crawling out of the hole, turn the prepared collection box upside down at an appropriate position close to the nest entrance and slightly above it to allow the worker bees to slowly enter.

When the number of worker bees crawling out of the hole is small, they continue to spray smoke into the tree hole. While spraying smoke, they also keep the collection box in place to collect the bees that crawl out one after another. This process is repeated until the queen bee crawls out.

4. How can you catch bees and raise them?

How to catch wild bee colonies 1. Using smell to lure is a good way to catch wild bee colonies. Don't discard the queen bees that are eliminated during beekeeping. You can soak them in 75% alcohol. When catching bee colonies, you can put this alcohol in the trapping bees, and then put the trapping box not far from the bee colony, and then hang a honeycomb with honey outside the trapping box. The bees in the bee colony will slowly come to the beehive. After they enter, close the nest door. 2. How to catch the queen bee. When catching wild bee colonies, it is best to catch the queen bee in the bee colony first, so that the bees in the bee colony will follow the smell of the queen bee into the beehive. The appearance of the queen bee is the most special existence in the bee colony. It is large in size and has low activity. Before catching it, you can use a sprayer to spray water on the bee colony to stun the bees, and then quickly catch the queen bee and put it in the prison cage to prevent the queen bee from escaping. 3. Fumigation is also a good way to catch wild bee colonies. When using the fumigation method, it is best to prepare a snakeskin bag, and it should be done at night. When catching, light the moxa stick and place it near the bee colony, and then quickly buckle the snakeskin bag on the bee colony. After the bees smell the smoke, they will slowly crawl into the depths of the snakeskin bag. After all the bees have entered, seal the mouth of the snakeskin bag, and then go home and move it into the beehive.

5. How to catch a wild queen bee and take it home to raise?

1. The first step: observe the general situation of the tree hole to see if there is any dirt or other debris blocking the hole. If so, use a small wooden stick to gently dig it out. At the same time, also observe whether there are side holes. If there are, they should all be blocked with dirt.

2. The second step: After the observation is completed, light the fuel and put it into the fumigator. Gently press the air at the entrance of the nest and spray a little smoke into the tree hole, then stop. This step is mainly to make the wild bees have an "illusion" and suck a lot of honey.

3. The third step: After about half a minute, continue to spray a large amount of smoke into it and observe whether there is any smoke coming out around. If there is, it should be sealed with soil. If the hole is too big, it is better to block it with paper. Try to make the hole small so that a large amount of smoke will not be unable to get in and out.

4. Step 4: When you see a lot of smoke coming out of the hole, stop fumigating. When you see a large number of worker bees crawling out of the hole, turn the prepared capture box upside down in an appropriate position close to the nest entrance and slightly above it, and allow the worker bees to slowly enter.

5. Step 5: When the number of worker bees crawling out of the hole decreases, continue to smoke. During the fumigation, the collection box should still be placed in the original place. Repeat this process until the queen bee crawls out.

6. Step 6: When the queen bee crawls out, catch her gently with your hands and gently place her into the trap box through the nest door. At this time, there are still a large number of worker bees outside the hive. Just open the nest door and let them enter slowly.

7. Step 7: When collecting, try to let the worker bees crawl out cleanly. When there are no worker bees crawling out of the tree hole, use a small amount of paper to seal the hole to prevent the field bees from flying back to the original nest when they come back.

8. Step 8: When most of the worker bees have entered the collection box, close the nest door and open the ventilation compartment. You can then take the captured wild bees home, and then move the bee colony to a normal beehive to make it your own domestic beekeepers.

6. How to bring wild bees home? How to raise them?

Wild bees include wild bee colonies, wild bee swarms, and bees working in the wild. How do you bring wild bees home and how do you raise them? I am a beekeeper, and I will answer this question, hoping it will be helpful to you.

In the woods and mountains where people pass by, rural people say they are lucky to find a group of bees. Wild bees are found in small mud holes, small stone holes, and rotten tree holes. There is a group of wild bees here. We can take these bees back home and raise them. We can have honey to eat after raising them well.

Wild bees also include bees that are on duty collecting honey. It is useless to collect and take home such bees because they are on duty and are old bees with a short life span. Collecting them is not very valuable. However, you can spray honey on these bees to see if you can form a bee trail to find a group of wild bees. This method is really useful to collect and raise bees.

When we find a swarm of bees in the wild, how do we collect wild bees? If it is a bee swarm, it is easy to deal with. Use a wheat hat that ordinary people wear, put a rope on the top of the hat, grab the rope and gently insert the hat from one side into the swarm, slowly drive it into the hat head with a wooden leaf, wait until the queen of the bee swarm enters the hat, then leave the bee swarm a little bit, and then drive the bees of the bee swarm one by one, so that they fly into the hat, and drive all the bees into the hat, and then collect the wild bee swarm. However, you can also use a bag to collect, but be careful not to hurt the queen when collecting bees. It is generally not recommended to use any box for bee swarms, because if you find a bee swarm in the wild, it’s okay in the afternoon. In fact, the bee swarm stays on the tree for a very short time. When you see a bee swarm, you must collect it quickly, otherwise after one or two hours, the bees will find a cave suitable for living and the bees will fly away. After receiving the wild bee swarm and returning home, you can shake it off and raise it in the beehive. It is best to install a queen excluder on the nest door before shaking the bees. If you can't find one, you can make one with bamboo strips. Adjust the height of the nest door to 0.4 cm. You can also place a queen cage at the nest door. This is the method for raising a single bee colony for the first time. As for those who have bee colonies at home, you can use brood combs to stabilize the colony.

If you find a group of wild bees in the wild, or in a tree hole or a mud cave, then take the tools to dig them out and collect them. Before collecting, it is best to bring a beehive, a cutting knife, a collection hat, etc. When you dig up the nest, use incense smoke to make the bees fly away from the nest and form a group, and then collect them with a hat. For the beehive, try to cut it out gently, and use the wire wire to tie the brood comb to the wooden frame and put it into the box. After that, adjust the frame with Ding Ding, shake the bee group collected in the hat vigorously and put it into the beehive, and then cover it. There are many ways to collect wild bees. You can also bring a bag back home and move it into the box. The brood comb must not be damaged and must be put back into the original bee group.

As for how to raise the bees that have been captured and placed in the boxes, this question is a bit long, so I can only briefly talk about general beekeeping here. For beekeeping, in the first few days, you can feed the bee colony with 1:1 syrup, about one pound every night, and feed it for six or seven days in a row. As long as you see the bees in the box eating the sugar, building and breathing out the combs, it means that the bees have accepted their new home. When there is no honey and little pollen in the outside world, you can feed a batch of honey every month, and add pollen or substitute powder to the bee colony appropriately. As for raising bees very well, since the beekeeping technology in the beekeeping technology is too long, you can go to the headlines to pay attention to beekeeping knowledge, there are many related beekeeping technologies there, I can only compile this here, if you have any questions, leave a comment below.
