Watch the bees outside the box and know the inside of the box.

@ # @ 255cm @ is a social insect that prefers a stable and quiet environment. When raising in captivity, it is inevitable to check bees out of the box due to the needs of production. However, if the box is opened too much and too frequently, it is bound to affect the stability of the colony, and may even cause the colony to escape because of disobedience to "soil and water".

At room temperature, several bees stand at the door of the nest, do not bite the door, do not flap their wings, do not crawl with each other, and only give a little "care" to the entry and exit bees, or follow them slightly; the worker bees enter and exit the sun, and carry on alternately one after another; the flying bees, or big belly, or two legs are glued with powdery balls. In front of the whole nest, there was a busy and prosperous scene. This shows that the queen bee spawning, feeding bee breeding, brewing bee processing are generally normal. There is no need to open the box for inspection at this time.

There is a gradual increase in the number of bees in front of the nest door, but they are not on duty, but lie on their stomach, as if waiting for something. This indicates that the colony will divide the bees, or the colony will escape. Once it is found that the bees in the box pour out like the water that broke the dike, and the bees at the exit of the nest are blocked together, it means that the division of bees has officially begun. At this time, breeders should immediately close the nest door to prevent the queen bee from flying out, or carefully observe the hovering direction and rest location of the colony, and begin to prepare for bee collection in time.

The number of bees entering and leaving the nest gradually decreased, or even sparse, while the number of bees staying at the door of the nest increased significantly, and even hung "beards" in groups. This shows that the colony has lost its queen, and the colony is grieving for the absence of a queen, and the keeper should replenish the queen immediately.

The guard bees at the door of the nest suddenly increased, and some of them fluttered their wings and gave off a bad smell; soon, a large number of bees poured out of the nest, accompanied by queen bees and drones, and drones from nearby colonies also flew out to join them, indicating that the new queen bee will hold a "wedding" ceremony. Bee farmers do not need to worry at this time, because the married queen bee will lead the "people" to return to the nest in triumph.

One or two or three or five bees hurriedly flew to the door of the hive, like dragonflies scratching the surface, and immediately flew away when they touched the guard bees, but not far away, always flying around the beehive in panic. Once they found holes or cracks in the hive, they quickly fell down and hurriedly tried to drill in. At the same time, the swarm of bees in the box also hurriedly climbed out for inspection, and even fought against foreign bees in order to drive them away, tear them apart, and sometimes twist them together. This is a bee theft, once the first theft is successful, the bandit can happen. At this time, breeders must immediately come up with anti-theft measures to avoid causing greater losses.

Bees outside the nest climb up and down each other, like mating on the ground; sometimes they shake their wings and stir the back half of their bodies; sometimes they are listless and difficult to crawl; sometimes there are dead bees, and some of them are dragged out of the box. This shows that the bee or infected by the nest worm, must be treated immediately.

Box appearance bee, rich in content, a lot of knowledge. It is worth mentioning that when observing, do not squat in front of the box to facilitate the normal income of bees; do not carry strong odors such as fragrance, sweetness, etc., to prevent bees from disturbing; do not easily fiddle with bees to prevent bees from stinging.
