In the Fall for the beekeeper entering a new phase, highly responsible. Ahead of winter, which experienced beekeeper will never be fooled by low activity in the hive. This is a complicated and very tricky period. At this point, without exaggeration, in the hands of a man fate of the entire apiary. To every one of bee colonies wintered safely needed fall feeding of bees.
Why is it necessary?
First, one or a few of the reasons why bees have been unable to provide for themselves for the winter stocks of fodder in sufficient quantity. Fertilizing replenishes. This is her main goal.
Secondly, the main honey flow had devastated the hive of honey, and its removal must be compensated.
Third, you need to replace a fast crystallizing honey, especially honeydew, which is often deadly to bees. Instead, they should receive plenty of quality honey (syrup).
Fourth, the autumn feeding of bees - a great reason to give them a "session admission" of medications.
Feature fertilizing in the fall is that the bees need to get the most easily digestible product. They have neither the time nor the energy to do the same work as in summer. And people can help them.
So, how to prepare the feed for bees?
First of all, it is clear that it has to be sugar syrup. And it must be done in the best proportions, and ultimately facilitate recycling. This proportion is reached, if 2 l of water to take 3 kg of sugar. Get him a 64 percent solution. The water should be soft, not to accelerate the crystallization of the syrup. And sugar is only light.
Autumn feeding of bees is prepared in a clean container. The water is boiled, there is filled with sugar, he stirred until complete dissolution. The syrup needs to be brought almost to the point of boiling, then immediately remove from heat so that the sugar is not burnt and spoiled all hopelessly feeding. And now - a little trick because, unlike sugar syrup, floral honey has a characteristic acid reaction. To simulate, the syrup is added 70% acetic essence (1 kg sugar 0.3 g). once cooked autumn feeding of bees to cool to about 30 degrees, it can be in the hive on hand. The colder will be the syrup, the bees will be reluctant to take it.
Now let's talk about something very important - the timing of feeding. it must Begin when the ends of the main bribery and stops, the pumping of honey. It's August. In principle, in two weeks you can meet. But if this operation in a separate bee colonies for any reason delayed, it is necessary to remember: feeding bees in the winter should be discontinued until September 10. Why?
Processing of the syrup - the work of bees for wear, and those individuals who are engaged in it, certainly not until the spring will survive. They have to change not yet nadrugavshis young bee, just emerged "into the light". If feeding will be delayed until 10 September, they Willy-nilly will have to be involved in the processing of syrup. The flow of nectar into the nest will continue. The uterus will decide what bribery is, and will continue to lay eggs. Die and young bees. They will be replaced by post-brood too late: it's cold, that will not fly. In the absence of the first trial flight of the young bees begin to suffer diarrhea right in the hive, and this is a deadly threat to the entire bee family.
See what terrible consequences may result from delaying feeding bees in the winter? Please do not allow this.
