PSA: When you see a beehive out for a swarm removal; LEAVE 👏🏻 THE 👏🏻 BOX👏🏻 ALONE!👏🏻 Disturbing the hive and/or pushing it over is not funny. Not only is it dangerous to you as a person. It makes it dangerous for the beekeeper when they go to retrieve the hive! You also run the risk of killing the Queen! Without the Queen the colony will die out. I won’t know until I do an inspection later, to know if the queen is alright. https://www.instagram.com/p/CPRn8MHjeRW/?utm_medium=tumblr

We received MULTIPLE calls to Zephyrhills Depot Park for a rescue. The minute we set the box down beside them, they all started marching in! #swarm2021 #beerescue https://www.instagram.com/p/CPQ-Jz0Dvvb/?utm_medium=tumblr

Ever wonder where bees get their wax from? One of a newborn honeybee’s jobs is producing wax. Newbies special glands that excrete liquid wax, in a similar way that humans sweat. Once exposed to air, the wax begins to harden into flakes. Other bees take these wax flakes and mold them into a part of the honeycomb. As the newbies grow older, they lose this ability as their wax glands become inactive. By then, they have gain a promotion in becoming a forager bee! https://www.instagram.com/p/CM2io-BDHNN/?igshid=dpsoke08j5az
