- In this video, Frederick Dunn interviews Dr. Vera Strogolova regarding Direct Fed Microbials aka Probiotics for honey bees.
What are they, and how do they work?
Direct Fed Microbials are of interest to many backyard and commercial beekeepers. It's all about the gut bacteria of bees as well as other farm animals and how to keep that healthy.
In some cases, SuperDFM-P801 can aid in coping with pesticides associated with commercial agriculture.

I literally starve for Fred Dunn Content!! This has made me so Happy!!! Thats 2 fer 2!!! Absolutely Awesome! Thank you! God Bless!!!
Absolutely love that you are doing these talks with the people that are the source of the expertise. Amazing that you can get these folks to sit down for an extensive talk. I appreciate your approach to the guests and that you always give them time to make any comments at the end of the talks that they may wish to add to the conversation. It is also interesting that you ask probing questions that you can see the guest thinking about the answer, not just some rote question with a canned answer. This topic is one that I have not paid so much attention to so far making this one a great expansion of knowledge in a new area. Many thanks to Dr. Strogolova and you for exploring this topic.
Great interview. Real glad she mentioned that gardening product at the end too!
First year beekeeper both of my colonies have a 🏀 size cluster and I really do believe Super-DFM was the edge my 🐝 needed to get them through winter.
I am not sold on Probiotics, but i will give them a look. the paper should be a good read.
Wow Frederick, you're on a roll!!!! Thank you Strong Microbial's--I use and strongly believe in you so much. I feel it is one of two components that i use that I believe keeps my hive strong enough to be at best, varroa free, and at least, live with varroa without treatment. The other component I swear by, is one that I would recommend Frederick consider interviewing. Its Host Defense: Longevity Reishi Mycelium. Between Strong Microbial's being used once a month, and feeding Host Defense in my feed early spring and last fall, I have a winning combination that I swear by. I stumbled on both of them and feel I have found these two things as a suggestion for all beekeepers that truly works.
thank you vera,n fred
Great video! Thank you Dr. Vera, it is a challenge running scientific studies with bees, especially with so many variables as you mention. I too am running a study and collecting research and its far more challenging than one thinks.. I had not much considered the use of probiotics with bees, but I now have some very interesting food for thought.. thank you
Thanks for sharing Fred. Really enjoying these interviews that you are doing!
Fred you are awesome at finding information that helps people like me. I really enjoy learning as much as I can about everything especially honeybees. Thanks Jason Ohiopyle PA. I placed an order and can’t wait to see if it helps.
I have been beekeeping for five years and this is the first understandable explanation on this product in a video.
Very informative video,,Thanks Mr.Dunn.,🇱🇨👍🏼♥️
Thanks so much for your interview series. They have been very entertaining, educational, and thought provoking. Keep up the great work.
Fred, as always great video and really do appreciate the information you spread to backyard beekeepers. This video post was timely in that I recently found an entrance extender product called ProtectABee that want to try out, besides reducing robbing you can put powders like DFM in it so the bees walk over it and distribute it throughout the hive. I'm our bee club's Citizen Science lead and we do comparative studies to help our members. It's coming out this June and is currently in funding so we are goingtotest some of these out. I'm a Long time follower of yours and always look forward to your posts! Thank you
Good job.
Hi fred I’ve been watching your videos I tend to watch them in bit meal pieces , I’ve really been enjoying g these interviews.
This was a wonderful and educational video. However, when I found out Bob Binnie uses super DFM, I was sold!
Coincidence- maybe- but all 10 of 10 of my hives came through winter- so far and last fall I did not expect 2-3 of them to make it. Yep- I was feeding SuperDFM. Probably not correctly but as I could.
WOW Fred all these interviews 😳 thanks so much. When do you find time to sleep? And then care for everyone else.
Very interesting research here. I saw them at the Hive Life conference, just didn't get time to speak with them.
