BeeVital QueenAccept

product for intervention on the bee colony

All the interventions performed by the beekeeper in the bee colony for organizing the brood nest, biological balancing of the colony, merging colonies or requeening are operations that require care because all these may trigger the defense instinct of the bees and their aggressiveness may hinder the beekeeper in performing his task.

Requeening, one of the important actions for bee colony, usually done every year by the professional beekeeper may sometimes be unsuccessful, especially in cases of uncontrollable bee aggressiveness.

Most of the time the beekeepers use smoke in order to influence the behavior of the bees and make the intervention possible. Smoke triggers the survival instinct in the colony, the bees load their honey stomach with honey in the eventuality of fast leaving the hive. In these stress conditions, they are less aggressive to the beekeeper as they are more concerned to carrying the honey reserves out of the endangered area.

The use of BeeVital QueenAccept does not imply any threatening perception; the bees continue their normal activity and the beekeeper may intervene in conditions that are more comfortable.
