we opened the hives.
we shook the bees off the frame.
we used smoke to make the bees think there is a fire. this makes drink more.It makes it safer for us to open and go into the hive we were checking to find the queen bee.
we were also checking for larvae,beeswax honey,and pollen on the frame
we used a brush to brush the bees off the lid. we used hive tools to clean the frame and remove the propolis we saw drones and worker bees.
our hive is going well-our bees are happy
whaea put in some bayvarol strips for varroa mites
