Why fall fly bee? What causes?

This question bothers nearly all beekeepers.

Since ancient times it was believed, the cause is gathering some black magic, example, or whammy, was said to the people, "Bad place".

In the XXI century, this explanation hard to believe, and now together we will investigate the cause takeoff industrious insects.

How does fall off the bees?

Insects during the season medosbora not show concern, behave just fine: collect a large harvest of honey, do not steal from each other reserves, did not suffer.

And one day not detected empty hive. This occurs after the fall medosbora.

All anything, but cells with honey, ambrosia and other beneficial food remain in the same house bee.

That insect throw the results of their hard work, nasidzheny hive and, eventually, food for the winter.

Soars family secret, because at this time of year almost invisible swarm.

Also in the hive and throw fugitive larvae, which, naturally, die.

Some researchers call this behavior bee suicide.

Fortunately, fly, not all colonies, as a percentage of. This may be 5%, and some apiaries after season nedolichuyutsya 70% families.

There were times, when a bee flew apiary, and on the other, Nearest, No.

This trend rally observed not only in Ukraine, Russia, Belarus and other CIS countries.

In the United States flies around 50% bees, local scientists blamed on stress.

In America, bees hold not only for honey and bee products, but also to pollinate fields.

The country is commonplace apiary on wheels, constantly carrying. All these factors negatively tell on the state insect.

Why are bees going off?

First of all, experts think about the disease: family shocked, example, saved from mite pest escape.

But in the checking hive pidmoru, which escaped bees, each time showing, that critical diseases or parasites not.

Scientists still thinking about the reason for such behavior of bee colonies.

Today, scientists are considering as an option the reasons for the fall rally unsatisfactory conditions of insects:

1. The death of queen bee through retirement, disease, otherwise. In this case there is no young brood, and the old bee fly, tired seasonal medosbora.
2. Herbicides. If adjacent fields treated with harmful chemicals, then colonies fly away, to find a good and clean place to stay and collect honey.
3. Poor location of the hive: its highlight direct sunlight, in the house constantly hot. Also, the reason lies in the distance reservoirs, which insects take liquid, a strong wind or mice, which annoy the bees.
4. Houses made of substandard materials, processed by caustic chemical substance, or smell of paint made from wood, who do not like insects.
5. Disease, especially varroatoz, virus strain wings. So, the varroa mite can breed in the hive, and insects fly, escape the parasite pest.

The rise may be due to the kindness of the owner of an apiary, permanently zahodovuye insects.

WTO and many cells, and the location and scope – few, and industrious bees simply nowhere to build a common nest.

The final reason takeoff, approved professional apiarists, bee swarm is transportation from one place to another.

Roy brought, he put a huge amount of wax and insects fly, because they want to survive.

What they say about the fall off beekeepers?

Some beekeepers, which apiary – a piece of life, claim, people no longer understand the nature of bees: "We treat them as product enrichment, forgetting, bees – a key participant in the pollination of plants!».

Recommend experienced beekeepers hives build special, to attract insects swarming period.

This house of approximately this size: 40 * 40 * 120.

In the rear of the hive worked out slit, better set at an angle hive.

The walls of the grate favorite herbs toilers: Melissa, mint and drip sure about 5 drops of honey.

Insects must oblyubuyut a cozy apartment!

If a wall is removable hive, at the end of the season can be neatly cut cells, not to disturb insects.

By the way, these cells, which did not pass through medogonku, considered natural.

What to do, to prevent the take-off of bees?

1. Check all hives in terms of odors. If your bees live in houses with different wood, then look, from which they fly. Perhaps, vymalyuyetsya general trend.
2. Treat insects and hives means against ticks and other diseases.
3. Will cut their diet, may be, reason overfeeding.

But none, even scientists, can guarantee, that the rise will not happen during the next fall.

Probably, rise – a chain of causes, merging and provoke bees on a suicidal escape.

Some observations on different families of insects found, very often the bees fly away from various welfare (took note of houses, distance fields, the absence or presence of herbicides in plants).
