Honeybees respond to the seasons & as beekeepers we must ensure our management strategies align with the bees natural requirements throughout the year. Here you will learn how & why we pack down our bees to ensure they survive the winter period.
We drill down into specific areas to help you make better decisions with your colony
Winter bee biology
Space adjustment
Feeding & nutrition
Winter tasks
Disease checks
Pre-winter checks
BioSecurity Checks
and more
Note: Varroa mite is now in Australia and we have transitioned to management. This will NOT be added to this course. We highly recommend you keep up to date with your local department as to the evolving varroa requirements in your state. Here is the link to Australian Honey Bee Industry Corporation that governs all treatments and provides all state regulations for varroa management. Please make time to review the every changing situation. https://honeybee.org.au/varroa...
