1. How to raise bees for apitherapy at home?First, keep it away from light. Bees are impatient and photophilic. When they find themselves locked up, they often die of impatience. The bodies of impatience-dead bees are black. So after bee therapy, we must put the bee therapy box in a dark place, such as a drawer or a dark room. In this way, the bees will think it is night and stay quietly in the bee therapy box to make and eat honey. Second: Feed them with food - rock sugar. Do not feed them with water. Bees are medical insects that are very particular about hygiene. In order to maintain the hygiene of their living environment, they excrete outside the hive. They would rather hold their stool than excrete it in the hive where they live. Bees often hold their stool like this, which will cause them to die of suffocation or get a big stomach disease or enteritis. Therefore, in order to prevent them from starving to death, only sugar is fed, not water, to reduce their excretion and supply them with energy so that they will not starve to death, and to extend the time they can be kept in the bee therapy box. Third: The bees need a suitable temperature in the box. The most suitable temperature for bees to survive is 15-25 degrees Celsius. Bees are cold-blooded animals. When a single bee is stationary, its body temperature is very close to the surrounding temperature. The critical temperature that Chinese bees and Italian bees can withstand is 10-13 degrees Celsius respectively. When the temperature drops to 13 degrees, the bees are frozen. Therefore, it is best to keep bees in our bee therapy box at around 20 degrees Celsius, because if the temperature is too low, the bees will freeze to death. If the temperature is too high, the bees will be excited, and their metabolism will be fast, which will shorten their lifespan and cause death. At around 20 degrees Celsius, the basic survival temperature of the bees is guaranteed without making them too excited. 2. Teach you beekeeping techniques step by step?1. Choose beehives A basic condition for raising bees is to choose suitable beehives. You should choose boxes made of solid materials and light texture. Since beehives are generally placed in the open air and bees spend most of their lives outdoors, a good environment must be provided. 2. Transfer bee colonies First, prepare the live-frame beehive in advance, transfer the purchased bee colony or the wild trapped bees into the beehive, and generally put the honeycomb together, so that the bees can quickly adapt to the new environment and resume normal activities. 3. Subsidized feeding During the period of honey-gathering, bees are fed supplementary food, usually starting with artificial feeding in the evening, such as pollen, sugar water, honey, etc. In winter, bees collect less honey, so the number of feedings needs to be increased. They can be fed once in the morning and once in the evening with diluted sugar water. 4. Planting plants In the process of raising bees, a large number of flowers and plants, such as peonies, peonies, rape flowers, etc., can be planted around the site to provide sufficient nectar sources to prevent the bees from flying to distant places and reducing economic benefits. 3.

What is the simplest way to keep bees at home?Here are the easiest ways to keep bees at home 1. Selection of bee colonies: First of all, you need to choose bee colonies that are adapted to the local climate and other conditions according to your living environment. In this way, the survival rate of bees can be basically guaranteed. 2. Selection of beehives: Because beehives need to be placed outdoors, when choosing beehives, try to choose high-quality and sturdy ones. 3. Bee colony environment: Choose a cooler environment to avoid direct sunlight. It is better if there are flowers and plants around, which is convenient for bees to collect honey and is conducive to improving the quality of honey production. Remember, bee colonies must not be released on rainy days, otherwise a large number of bees will die. 4. Feeding: In addition to releasing the bees to collect honey on their own, they also need to be fed with honey, sugar water, etc. every night. In winter, it is necessary to increase artificial feeding efforts to maintain the survival of the bees and increase honey production. 5. Finally, you must pay attention to your own safety when raising bees, because bees are dangerous and you need to make appropriate protective preparations. 5. How to keep bees at home alone?1. Site selection The bee farm should be located in a sunny place with clean and dry ground and surrounded by a large number of nectar-producing crops. For small-scale beekeeping, the garden in front of or behind the house can be used. Apiary should not be built along the banks of larger rivers or lakes (a small river several dozen meters wide is fine) to avoid the bees being blown into the water and drowning when flying to the other side to collect honey; it should not be built under high-voltage lines, because electromagnetic waves will interfere with the bee colony, making the bees lost or restless; it should not be built near sugar factories or sugar workshops to avoid the bees flying to the workshops and being killed in large numbers; it should not be built in places with vibrations, such as steam hammer operations, next to large electric motors, and in mountain quarries; it should not be built in polluted places, such as manure yards, garbage stations, refineries, etc.; and it is also not suitable to build apiaries in low-lying and humid places. 2. Purchase of bee colonies Beginners should buy 5 to 10 bee colonies for the first year to try raising them, and then raise more after gaining experience. It is best to buy bees in the spring when the bee colonies leave the room, and it is not suitable to buy bees in autumn. When buying bees, you should choose strong colonies, and buy colonies with 4 to 5 frames of bees in spring. The standard for a full frame of bees is that both sides of the honeycomb are covered with bees. If the honeycomb surface is sparse and not tightly covered, it cannot be considered a frame of bees. 6. How to keep bees at home?1. Choose a site. The bee farm should be located in a place that is sheltered from the wind and facing the sun, with clean and dry ground and a large number of nectar-producing crops around. For small-scale beekeeping, the garden in front of or behind the house can be used. The bee farm should not be built along the banks of large rivers or lakes (a small river several dozen meters wide is fine) to prevent the bees from flying towards 7. What are the tips and methods for raising bees?1. Before we raise bees, we need to determine the number of bees we want to raise. Do not force raising too many bees. Honey production is actually closely related to the ability of the bees, and it is not completely proportional to the number of bees. We need to raise strong bees. Generally, strong bees are bred in the spring. It is necessary to control the growth of the bees at this time. This is the key. 2. When we raise bees, we need to add combs and expand the nests in a timely manner. This is also quite critical. Of course, we can also control the queen bee's egg-laying, which is also possible. Only in this way can we create bees with stronger abilities and collect more pollen. 3. When we raise bees, we need to provide them with certain amounts of feeding. Don’t think that we can rely on the bees to produce honey on their own. That is definitely not possible. We need to supplement the bees with protein, which can make the bees’ physique better and create more honey. 4. When we raise bees, we also need to control the number of septum combs and not cut them off in large numbers, as this will easily lead to a significant reduction in the subsequent bee output. It is best to choose an appropriate amount, which can increase the output of the bees and thus obtain high returns. 5. When we raise bees, we will definitely encounter some bad weather. In such weather, we must try our best to ensure the living environment of the bees. Never let the bees out on rainy days, as this will easily lead to the death of a large number of bees. This is what we need to know. 6. Careful care is required to ensure that bees can collect pollen normally during the flowering season. If there are too few flowers around, we can also choose to move them to an appropriate location. Don't sit and wait, as that will only make the bees go to far away places to collect pollen, which will not produce high yields. |
