IEBA Week 11, 2024 Hive Inspection

Thanks for joining us again for this weeks hive inspection.
Today we are looking for how the nectar flow is going, we show this by how much weight the hive is gaining.
We are also doing quick mite checks by pulling drone cells to see if there are mites.
We are also showing new comb called icing or frosting which they are drawing out to add more honey.
Like always. Your hives may be ahead or behind of our video hive based on your location, climate and nectar source. Our videos are a guide to help show what your hive should be looking like and what to look like if you need to treat.

At what point do I need to treat for mites? I lost my hive to them last year so I’m nervous about it!
