Beekeeping honey = healthy: it works SpazioMussi

Dear friends, beekeepers and non

today (March 27, 2010) have been made to control a beehive of a friend of mine who can not take care of him for family reasons. Hives, about fifty, are all SpazioMussi since spring 2009, are heavily populated and require the supers. In a particularly sore after the placement of a diaphragm, I found a whole honeycomb natural male brood capped.

What better opportunity to control the presence of varroa?

So I cut two squares that I brood uncapping and emptied in search of honey. With the help of my partner, Leonardo Parisi Marettimo, I photographed the operations (see photo attached) and after having carefully searched , I found a mite .

L and two pieces of honeycomb are the size of about four inches each side that is 100 cm = 200 square inches of brood male relative to the size of the honeycomb 30 x 40 cm = 1200 cm squares means one-sixth of the total area. This means that statistically in all cells of the honeycomb facade there may be six varroa and then, in all about twelve cells of the honeycomb and honey.

But if instead of twelve there were one hundred and twelve, What would change?
Nothing!
The fact no one can deny :
the and family are there, without any treatment, and are vegete and productive lives.
Sorry, but it is possible that the method works only in the province of Trapani? The method works, the question is, beekeepers work?


Sincerely

Beekeeping at night: The charm of the moon also affects bees

evokes the full moon in the collective stories of werewolves and witchcraft witches' sabbath, in the Neapolitan song instead it is a magic moment for lovers and beekeepers as such? I can not say.

sure the bees have to say their .



Transhumance is not only a technical but also a productive 'activity which makes us protagonists in the mysterious and fascinating life cycle. In early summer, when night temperatures rarely drop below twenty-five degrees, when the campaign fry quickly, not only for the ripe corn, but above all for dried herbs, it's time to move on the last of the grazing season, eucalyptus.

Around seven hundred meters above sea level the atmosphere changes, the air bracing and aromatic for the share and the breath of eucalyptus trees, the rustle of leaves that gently diffuses into the silence of the forest, create an idyllic, almost magical.

gratified by the choice of the place happy and hopeful for a good harvest we leave undisturbed our bees to their task.

Our bees feel the same way?

I doubt very much the thinking skills of bees, it is more reasonable to believe that the beekeeper suits his thoughts to their needs and their instinctive behavior.

... ... ... .. And they do not disappoint!

Subito si buttano impetuose sulla fioritura, l’eucalipto è una pianta molto generosa e poi, con il gran caldo, il nettare è così concentrato che dalla sera alla mattina si potrebbe anche smielare. Approfittare di questo tesoro è un imperativo categorico a cui le care apine non si sottraggono. Per loro è in gioco un fattore fondamentale, la sopravvivenza della famiglia in primis e della specie in secundis.

Il lavoro ferve ad un ritmo parossistico, il caldo aumenta, le piante più precoci incominciano a sfiorire, il tempo stringe, non si può perdere neanche un momento.

And so, when the solar disk slowly disappearing behind the hill, is replaced by good-natured big face of the full moon, is an unexpected opportunity for the bees is like the beginning of another day, a dawn full extended of promises and hopes.

The more willing or more experts are launched, some light is goose but the reference is significant, a great white disk. The work by candlelight, you know, is not as productive as that in the daytime, our grandmothers knew better, but it is still better than nothing, the rustle of leaves is added to the buzz of the workers and the forest live the night.

Nectar dense pellets of pollen, continue to flock to the hive in the night, little bit, yes, but this is the beginning of a new day is like every day, starting the work is slow but grow, as always.

Night after night, dawn after dawn, day after day, growing supplies, life force or charm the moon?

We'll never know!
