How to raise Chinese bees, how to raise Chinese bees.

65438+ China bees are not very strict about the big honey source, but they have more requirements about the species of honey source plants. Honey source has a continuous flowering period, and there is not a long honey break. Because bees in China are good at using sporadic nectar sources, sporadic nectar is constantly outside, which avoids bee theft and is convenient for management.

2. Placement of Chinese bees Because Chinese bees have short domestication time, strong toxicity and poor orientation ability, they are easy to get lost in the nest, so Chinese bees cannot be placed neatly, tightly and in the same direction as western bees. When bees are placed in the middle, the distance between groups should be far, staggered back and forth, and the direction of the nest door should not be the same, so as to avoid the bees in the group throwing in the wrong direction and killing each other. Especially mating groups, it is necessary to increase the distance between large groups to prevent the accidental killing of the queen. Each box should be padded with wooden stakes to prevent ants from invading China bees and causing bees to escape.

3, to prevent odor contact, bees have a sensitive sense of smell and are very sensitive to odor reactions. It is best to keep Chinese bees in beehives used by western bees. Or choose a new beehive made of tasteless wood. Before using the new beehive, apply a small amount of beeswax to eliminate the smell of wood, which is beneficial to the acceptance of Chinese bees and prevents them from flying away. There is no need to use irritating drugs to prevent bee diseases. After bee hives and bee tools are disinfected, the peculiar smell must be completely eliminated before they can be reused. Beehives should be disinfected by burning as much as possible to prevent the smell from irritating bees and causing them to escape.

4. In bee colony management in China, bees have a keen sense of smell and strong invisibility. Preventing bee stealing is a major task of bee management in China, so we should pay attention to it at any time. It is best to drill 6-8 rows of small holes with a diameter of 5-5.5 mm on the nest door. In the process of feeding, the number of small holes is open or closed according to the change of group potential. The seams of the box are sealed with plastic tape.

5. The habit of Chinese bees knocking on the old spleen is related to their poor resistance to the nest worm (wax moth). When raising Chinese bees, you should always create new spleen and replace the old one. Except for keeping a small amount of old spleen for honey collection, the rest should be removed and melted in time to prevent wax moth eggs from being brought into the bee colony. The distance from the bottom of the box to the lower beam of the nest spleen should be at least 40 mm Or use a live bottom beehive to remove the wax chips at the bottom of the beehive at any time to prevent the wax moth from laying eggs.
