Care Of Bees On Frame Hives

There is a growing acceptance among many beekeepers of the principles of minimum intervention and avoidance of chemicals in the hive. Beekeepers with standard frame hives will find their colonies benefit when they care for their bees as described in this book. This will result in reduced stress, happier bees and increased honey crop, sustainably obtained. The Natural Beekeeping movement has gained many followers, people concerned with the plight of bees and their environment, using Top Bar hives (including the Warr?) and skeps. With the increased scope and flexibility offered by frame hives they can gain a better understanding of the behaviour of their bees and still adhere to the principles of Natural Beekeeping. I have included a chapter that shows how my methods differ from those conventional practices taught by national beekeeping associations, which I maintain are not beneficial.This book includes a comprehensive guide for those wishing to start beekeeping, with advice on the quickest and cheapest way to start, in the excitement of the swarming season. Many new beekeepers lose their bees because they do not understand them: they may read books on the mystery and magic of bees, but not how to care for a hive of bees.
