Beekeeping in Spring: Why it's time to remove entrance reducers NOW!🐝

Spring has arrived, and that means it’s time to remove the entrance reducers from the hives! Over the winter months, these reducers play a crucial role in helping the bees by: ▶️ WATCH THIS NEXT:    • I'm a Beekeeper in Wales and I'm EXCI...   ✅ Reducing the entrance size to help the colony defend against predators ✅ Keeping the hive warmer by minimizing drafts ✅ Preventing rodents from sneaking inside and causing damage Now that temperatures are rising and the bees are becoming more active, they need a wider entrance to allow for better ventilation and to prevent overcrowding at the hive entrance. A strong, thriving colony is essential for spring honey production, and giving the bees the space they need helps them stay productive. 🚜🐝 Let’s get to work and help our bees thrive! --------- ▶️ CHAPTERS: 0:00 Intro 2:32 The Bee quad 3:07 Removing the Entrance Reducers 5:56 Checking another Site 6:23 Outro --------- ▶️ MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO The Importance of Gorse for Bees & Spring Honey Before heading to the hives, I take a quick ride on the beekeeping quad bike to explore the landscape and check on the local wildflowers. One of the most important early nectar and pollen sources for bees in spring is gorse—a bright yellow flowering shrub that blooms even in cooler temperatures. Gorse plays a vital role in supporting colony growth, helping bees gather resources for brood production and spring honey. Wildflower Honey & Its Benefits for Hay Fever As bees forage on gorse, dandelions, and other wildflowers, they begin producing wildflower honey—a delicious and nutrient-rich honey with a unique flavor profile. Many believe that consuming local honey can help with seasonal allergies like hay fever, as it may expose the body to small amounts of local pollen, helping to build resistance over time. While not a medical cure, raw, unprocessed honey has been used for generations to help soothe allergy symptoms naturally. Join the Beekeeping Adventure!
