How can a wild bee not let it run?

Bee is a flying social resource insect, and there are abundant wild resources in the mountainous areas of China. In fact, many people start beekeeping by collecting wild bees, but the collected bees sometimes run away. Let's take a look at how to raise wild bees so as not to run away!

First of all, enough food.

Bees need food as much as other animals. When food is insufficient, bees will run away. Therefore, the collected wild bees must be fed in time. When feeding, honey can be diluted with water and fed to bees, or added with water and sugar to make syrup. There are two main advantages of feeding bees at this time. One is to provide necessary food for bees, and the other is to stimulate bees to make spleen and breed new bees.

Second, the environment is suitable.

Bees have extremely high requirements for breeding environment. When the breeding environment is not suitable, bees will run away. First, the temperature and humidity of the farm should be suitable for the survival of bees. Second, beekeeping hives should have no peculiar smell (many bees escape because of beehives). Third, the environment around the farm should be quiet (no beekeeping in noisy environment). Fourth, there should be fewer enemies (wasps, ants, etc. ) It's near the farm.

Third, the safety escape film

It is best to install an escape prevention sheet on the hive door after the wild bees are collected. The escape prevention tablet is made by using the principle that the chest thickness of queen bee and worker bee is different. After the anti-escape piece is installed on the hive door, the worker bees are basically unrestricted in and out of the hive, while the queen bee can't get out of the hive because her chest is thicker than that of the worker bees. In fact, as long as we try to control the queen bee in the hive, bees can't escape basically.

Fourth, transfer spleen.

Bees are actually very fetish insects. As long as there are sub-populations in the bee colony, it will basically not run away. Therefore, according to this characteristic of bees, some sub-populations can be transferred to maintain the bee colony. The specific operation method is to bring some eggs and spleens from other bees to the newly harvested bees, and at the same time reward the newly harvested bees to stimulate the queen bee to lay eggs and encourage the worker bees to feed their larvae. As long as the queen bee begins to lay eggs, the bees will basically not run away.

Summary: Bees are very "homesick" insects. There must be a reason for bees to escape, and the most common reason is lack of food. Therefore, the newly collected bees must be supplemented and basically stable after the bees begin to make spleen and reproduce.
