Embodiment 1

[0012] see figure 1 , the device of the present invention is composed of two containers, the bee activity area 1 and the essential oil storage area 2. The bee activity area 1 and the essential oil storage area 2 are separated by a gauze 6, and the gauze 6 is fixed on the bottom of the bee activity area 1. 1 There is a centrifuge tube 3 with a cover on one side of the top, which is used to fill the liquid or semi-fluid food (sugar water or honey) for feeding bees. The bottom of the centrifuge tube 3 is a small opening with a diameter between 2-3mm. Too large, so as not to drop the food in the centrifuge tube 3, but the bees can suck the food in the centrifuge tube through this opening, and the other side of the top of the bee activity area 1 is provided with a vent 4 sealed with a net, both to achieve air circulation, To prevent the bees from escaping, the filter paper 5 is laid flat on the bottom of the essential oil storage area 2 to load the essential oil of balm and promot...

Embodiment 2

[0014] Weigh 100 grams of Aromatherapy herbs, according to the method for extracting volatile oil in the 2010 edition of "Chinese Pharmacopoeia", add 300 milliliters of water after pulverizing the Aromatherapy herbs, and extract the essential oils by co-water distillation with slight boiling for 5 hours. Put 20 bees and 10 bee mites into the bee activity area 1 of the device of embodiment 1, and pour 0.5 milliliter of balsamic essential oil on the filter paper 5 placed at the bottom of the essential oil placement area 2, and the essential oil volatilizes naturally at room temperature , acting on bees and bee mites.

[0015] Results: Some bee mites fell from the bees within 1 hour, and the bees had no poisoning reaction. After 48 hours, 9 bee mites died and none of the bees died. It can be judged that 0.5 ml of balm essential oil has a good killing effect and is non-toxic to bees.

Embodiment 3

[0017] Weigh 100 grams of Magnolia magnolia medicinal material, add 400 milliliters of water after crushing, and extract the essential oil by co-water distillation method and micro-boiling for 5 hours. Put 20 honeybees and 10 bee mites into the honeybee activity zone 1 of the device of embodiment one, and pour 0.5 milliliters of the magnolia essential oil extracted above on the filter paper 5 placed at the bottom of the essential oil placement zone 2, the essential oil is at room temperature Volatile, acts on bees and bee mites.

[0018] Results: There was no poisoning reaction to bees and bee mites within 1 hour. After 48 hours, one bee mite died and five bees died. It can be judged that magnolia essential oil with a dosage of 0.5 ml is less effective in killing mites and has low toxicity to bees.

Abstract

The invention provides a device for breeding bees, which is composed of a bee movement area and an essential oil placing area, wherein the bee movement area and the essential oil placing area are separated through a mesh. The mesh is fixed at the bottom of the bee movement area, a centrifugal tube with a cover is installed at the top of the bee movement area and used for accommodating feeding food, the bottom of the centrifugal tube is provided with an opening, and the diameter of the opening is 2-3mm. The top of the bee movement area is provided with an air vent sealed with a net, filter paper is horizontally paved at the bottom of the essential oil placing area and used for loading rosewood heart wood essential oil. The device enables the bees to freely feed, enables feeding to be convenient, bee mites can freely parasitize the bee bodies, the device is divided into an upper layer and a lower layer, the plant essential oil is separated from the bees and can act on the bees and the bee mites in a fuming mode, the mite killing effect is good, the bees are not hurt, toxicity to the bees is small, and toxicity of the plant essential oil on the bees and the bee mites can be measured simultaneously. The device for breeding the bees can be applied to experiments for screening anti-mite essential oil.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a device for raising bees, and relates to a device for experimentally raising bees and the application of the device in the experiment of screening anti-mite essential oils. Background technique [0002] Bees belong to the phylum Arthropoda, class Insecta, order Hymenoptera, superfamily Apoidea, family Apidae, genus Apis ( Apis ), is an economic insect with highly developed social behavior. While honeybees provide human beings with bee products with high nutritional value, the economic and ecological value of their pollination is even more immeasurable. [0003] Varroa dise ( Varroa destructor Anderson & Trueman 2000 (commonly known as "big bee mite") is an ectoparasitic mite of honey bees, and is the most threatening bee pest and disease to the beekeeping industry in the world. Bees infected with Varroa dissimilar significantly lose weight and even develop abnormalities. The bee colony will show a series of symptoms, such ...
