Yup, I quit a few apiaries that not starving yet but very lite on fed, it looks like they are consuming the nectar that they are bringing in the same day. I am just hoping that the weather will get better.

I called it under supers, what I witnessed doing that is, The bees working from the top to the bottom, by noticing that the upper supper are heavier and ready to harvest, while the lower supers are fresh nectar unless it gets full also, it seems they filling up the supers faster. I'm getting more honey doing that and it doesn't plug the excluder. I just don't know how to explain accurately.

@@chamberelga1653 who taught you that method?

Sir Edmund Benavidez a beekeeping researcher in the Philippines. At SLU EISSIF University where I got my Beekeeping training.

Thank you Sir!

Thank you!

Thank you Ian.

Dili sila mamaak, sting ra. Masting man pud ko usahay.

Thank you very much Sir Ed. God bless!

Last year, When I have seen 1 Varroa mite in the Drone brood, 25th of May. I applied formic acid rigth away. I have seen just a few dropped after that.

Hello, the label says 40ml for a double Langsttoth brood box with 20 frames covered with bees for tracheal mites. This is the same dosage for Varroa mites I was taught in School at BEEKEEPING RESEARCH AND SERVICE CENTER in the Philippines just need multipleapplicationsdependingon the mites level in your colonies.This is one of the method we use for mites control rotation and it work. We deal with varroa mites out there almost year round, good rotation is very important. Please Note! Here in Canada,that we need to follow what's written on the label according to Health Canada Pesticides Act. Thank you! Chamber

The pads I was using is meat pads that we can just buy them from Beemaid our honey coop. 4x6 inches. I put 20 lm per box and place it above the top bar upside down the tiny holes are facing below.

I'm in Brandon Area.

Hello Ian, thank you very much for visiting my channel! ( Canadian Beekeeping Blog).

Are you done your split work now?

Not yet, I will split a bit more yet to booster my weaker nucs here. I didn't move them to a different locations after splitting, the older bees just would fly back to the parent hives. Very hard to make time to do everything.

Keep up the great work, you do a good job with these vids

@@aCanadianBeekeepersBlog Thank you very much!

Thanks be to God Sir Ed ( Edly'n Honey by CJ Apiaries).

They are aluminum tape. I always check each of them after the cleaning, if I see a bent, I just patched them just to make sure that the queen won't be able to go through the bent hole.

Canada?

Yes, Manitoba 🇨🇦

Hello, Thank you for visiting my channel, my location is Manitoba. Here is the next video step by step how I did my splitting. Queen introduction, and acceptance indications. th-cam.com/video/E0YJmW7X5i4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=mcU_PT6qupzFClHo

If introducing a new queen, you would want to wait until all the eggs and larva are too old for the bees to make their own emergency queen You would want to check it a few times to take down any queen cells they made. After 10 day it should be good. When they're hopelessly queenless (no brood young enough to make a new queen You could introduce your caged queen.

Thank you! I'm still learning and trying hard how to speak infront of the camera.

You are doing a great job! Keep up the good work
