在漫长的夏天里,蜜蜂世界如同一幅动人的画卷。它们忙碌地飞来飞去,不仅要收集甘甜的露水,更要维护着他们精密而又复杂的社会秩序。在这个过程中,一个特别的问题会不断困扰养蜂人——中蜂围王。
当春夏之交 arrives, the bees become restless and anxious. The queen bee, usually calm and composed, becomes agitated and fearful. This is not a rare phenomenon; it's a natural reaction to the sudden changes in their environment or external stimuli. As a result, some worker bees form a tight circle around the queen bee, creating an egg-like structure that can suffocate her or cause her to become disabled.
This issue is particularly troublesome during spring and summer months (May to July), when the bees are most active in gathering nectar and pollen. If left untreated, this can lead to serious consequences for the colony. Without proper care and attention from the beekeeper, the entire hive may be at risk of collapse.
The reasons for this phenomenon are varied:
Sudden disruption of honey sources
Queen's anxiety upon returning to the hive
Age-related decline of older bees
Excessive rainfall during flower blooming season
Invasion by rival hives or pests
Aggressive behavior among neighboring hives during mergers
Overcrowding due to excessive boxes added too quickly
To address this issue effectively requires swift action from experienced beekeepers:
First aid: Release any trapped queens immediately by submerging them in water.
Reduce congestion: Remove excess brood cells (egg sacs) within 24-48 hours after treatment.
Introduce new queens: Nighttime introductions with sugar-water feeding stations help ease stress on both old and new queens.
Hive management: Ensure adequate space between frames without overcrowding.
In addition to these measures, managing worker bees' reproductive activities is crucial for maintaining healthy colonies:
Identify affected areas within 2-3 days after removing excess brood cells.
Gradually remove all food resources (pollen sacks) while keeping patrolling workers occupied elsewhere.
Seal off affected sections once all larvae have emerged as adult workers.
By addressing these issues promptly through careful observation and strategic intervention, we can ensure our beloved honeybees continue thriving under our care throughout each passing summer season.
