What do Bees do all Winter? ❄️🐝☃️
Bees are active all winter long, they just lay in the hive ⛺.
The bee is cold blooded, so the hive must maintain a warm temperature to keep the colony alive🌡️.
The bees attach themselves to each other with the queen in the center of the cluster💛.
As the temperatures drop, the cluster cinches up, and the bees tighten the cluster to create more warm. 🔥
All of this movement taken a great deal of energy on the part of the bees💪.
They replinish their energy stores by consuming the honey stored🍯🍯🍯.

VARROATREATMENT
I recommend these resistant dosing spraybottles for varroa treatment. Super easy and accurate dosing (1,15 ml per stroke), very fine jet distributes very evenly, very fast, no refilling of drippy syringes etc. required.
For now a one time 3,2% oxalic acid (natural ingredient in rhabarb) treatment of 3,5 ml per gap is sufficient and the standard approach for us in Norway. It is applied in winter when the hive is broodfree, the bees sit tight and no honey is harvested. It's deadly for mites, mild on the bees, and no traces are left in honey and wax.
#varroa #varroamite
Background:
The varroamites spread in Europe in the 80ies after being introduced from southeast Asia. The european honeybees had no defence mechanism in place and large populations were quickly wiped out. Today they are found in nearly all hives on all continents (except australia) and are still the number one threat to honeybee survival. However, some parts of Norway are still mitefree up to today. Since they cannot be wiped out once a hive is infectes a good treatment plan is required and nearly all hives worldwide need to be treated in some form. At the same time activities to breed resistant bees are ongoing with increasing success. Unlike in many other countries where pharmaceutical miticides are commonly used, we are only allowed to use mild diluted organic acids (oxalic acid, formic acid, lactid acid) and biotechnical measures to fight the mights in Norway. But on the long run we want to get away from any kind of treatment and hope for biotechnical measures in combination with varroa tolerant genes to be sufficient.

#BeeStrong testimonial by thefirfarm in 🇺🇸: “We tried out BeeStrong from BeeVitalcom after finding out about it on Instagram and were surprised how fast the brood patterns improved and the overall egg laying increased leading to healthier, thriving hives.
Here’s a few pics with my daughter, Charlotte (beekeeper in training!) assisting me. “
The diversity of urban flora is reflected in the various colours of pollen.The pollen serves as the main protein source to build up a strong winter crew. Even this late in the season Bergen provides all that is needed, no substitutes required. 🌺🌻🌼

Yesterday to make these candles, today I’m packing these candles. Now lets pray for the third day to be the day I ship these candles. DM for direct orders. Worldwide 😋✈️😃🐝 Un jour pour faire ces bougies, le lendemain pour les emballer. Maintenant prions pour que le troisième jour soit le jour où je les envoie. Envoyez-moi un message pour une commande en direct, dans le monde entier.

Did you know that...😃🐝🐝🐝.

The bees can help their buddies with orientation by raising their abdomens, emitting the nasonov pheromone and fanning it into the air.🌀.
Once the hive entrance is marked like this the rest will sense the location and follow in. 🚩🏡#nasonov #pheromone #nasonovpheromone .
