Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of bee breeding equipment, in particular to a bee swarming control and capture device. Background Art

[0002] Bee swarming refers to a reproductive behavior among bees, also known as the division of bees. This is a way for bee populations to reproduce and expand. Bee swarming usually occurs when the main queen bee in the bee colony (also known as the "queen bee") decides to leave the original nest and establish a new nest.

[0003] The process of bee swarming is as follows:

[0004] Preparation of the master queen bee: Before the master queen bee prepares for swarming, she will lay eggs and hatch some new queen candidates, which will be raised before leaving the nest.

[0005] Choosing a swarming base: After the queen bee leaves the nest, she will look for a suitable swarming base, usually choosing a new nest or cave.

[0006] Group departure: The queen bee will lead a group of worker bees to leave the original nest and stay and assemble near the swarm base, waiting for other worker bees to join.

[0007] Worker bees join: After other worker bees detect the information of the departing queen bee, they will join the group of the queen bee and her followers.

[0008] New nest construction: At the swarming base, the bee colony will begin to build a new nest to serve as a new beehive.

[0009] Development of the swarm colony: Over time, the swarm colony will grow and begin to breed and raise new bees.

[0010] Bee swarming is a part of the reproduction process of bee populations, which helps to expand and distribute the bee population. Under normal circumstances, bee swarming is a natural behavior of the bee colony, but it is important for breeders to manage and control the bee swarming process in a timely manner to maintain population balance and effective breeding management.

[0011] However, it is inconvenient to collect the bee colony after the bees swarm, which leads to the loss of bees. Utility Model Content
