As soon as the beehives were ready, the first swarm of bees came, and they landed directly under their own roofs.

What a sign of prosperity!

Wang Mingyuan was extremely excited.

In the countryside, the presence of bees in warehouses and the establishment of hornets in windows, as well as the nesting of swallows on doorposts, are considered auspicious and a sign of prosperity and prosperity.

Therefore, even if there is a pile of bird droppings in front of the door at any time, or for fear of being stung by wasps, they dare not even open the window and do not clean it to drive it away, and some people directly vacate their own lockers or boxes for the bees to move in, which is very common.

Wang Mingyuan was even in Mingcheng and saw a gourd honeycomb built on the window edge of the third floor of a big boss's villa, not only was it not exterminated, but a cage was specially welded with an aluminum alloy pipe to protect the honeycomb and hang neon lights.

It is also strange to say that the bee colony, which should have been scattered in winter, was still very vigorous the next year, and it grew bigger and bigger, and the sight of the hornets flying by with a heavy buzzing sound overhead frightened passers-by to avoid it.

It is said that in those two years, the big boss's business was done smoothly.

Although he didn't believe this, Wang Mingyuan felt that it was necessary for him to hang a red cloth at the door of the first group of bees in his apiary farm to celebrate the occasion.

Seeing that the bees had completely settled, and some bees were going out sporadically, Wang Mingyuan knew that those were going out to find a cave to live in.

Today the weather is fine, and in general, it will not take long to find the burrow, and the swarm of bees will soon leave.

Now that you're here, you still want to go......

Wang Mingyuan turned around and went back to the house, took the bee hat and put it on, found a beehive that had been exposed to the sun for a period of time and had been processed, brought a plastic round stool, carried a water scoop, and prepared to get started directly.

He took out his mobile phone and turned on the video recording, holding the mobile phone in his left hand and a water scoop in his right hand, stood on the round stool, and began to wait for the queen bee to appear.

The bee group felt Wang Mingyuan's breath and knew that danger was approaching. The bees on the surface immediately flapped their wings in unison and made a buzzing sound.

This is a signal transmission of vigilance, but also a kind of intimidation of intrusions, of course, in Wang Mingyuan's view, this is purely trembling.

He carefully observed the surface of the bee colony, and soon he saw that the queen bee, whose body was dark red, dragged her thick and long buttocks, and grew a large section larger than the average bee, came out of the bee colony, climbed a short distance along the surface of the bee colony, and then burrowed into the bee colony.

Golden opportunity!

Wang Mingyuan immediately lifted the water scoop and scooped it around the part where the queen bee had drilled.

This action is undoubtedly very rude for bees.

Suddenly, many bees fell, and more bees flew up and began to fly around Wang Mingyuan, and even many of them hit the gauze on Wang Mingyuan's windproof hat and tried to sting him.

However, there are bee hats, so why be afraid?

Wang Mingyuan hurriedly jumped off the round stool, shook off the beehive full of a large scoop of bees in his hand, and then quickly spread the cloth and covered the box.

This scoop, Wang Mingyuan scooped the queen bee in the scoop with full confidence and shook it into the beehive.

Bees are very sensitive to pheromones secreted by the queen bee, and the queen bee has always been timid, after all, the survival of a bee colony is at stake.

The queen bee is in the midst of the bees, where the summoning sound is loud, she will drill wherever she goes, and will soon be protected by the bee colony, and then it will not take long for the bees to drill out of the hive, and constantly vibrate their wings next to the three small holes left in the door of the box, summoning the scattered bees flying around.

Sure enough, after a while, the scattered bees outside who were constantly flying wildly in search of the queen bee quickly converged towards the entrance of the beehive, like flowing water, quickly burrowed into the beehive, and after completing the clumping, they settled down again.

It's as simple as that.

Of course, there are some gentler ways to collect bees, but it generally takes a long time.

Wang Mingyuan didn't want to carry a beehive by himself, take advantage of the upward nature of bees, use vibration and other methods to collect bees. Often, such a long disturbance is too long, and in such weather, it is easy to make the bee colony riot and cause more trouble.

This is the first swarm of bees, Wang Mingyuan deliberately chose a good place with a wide view of the leeward and sun, made four flush low stakes on the ground, and put the beehives on it.

Then I went to find the half of the asbestos tile I got when I demolished the Zhangjiaao earthen house at the beginning, put two wooden strips of different thicknesses on the beehive, covered the asbestos tile on it, and then found a few stones to press it to prevent it from being blown off by the wind, and tore off a piece of my red T-shirt and hung it on the beehive, and the thing was done.

All that's left to do is to prevent the bees from escaping, and when the bees start collecting normally, the colony is officially settled.

When collecting bees just now, Wang Mingyuan noticed that there were many black drones in this bee colony, and he realized that this was not an escape bee, but a split bee.

The appearance of drones heralds the arrival of the bee season.

Things can't be delayed.

In the following time, while paying attention to the situation of the group of bees, Wang Mingyuan began to arrange his beehives in a staggered manner in favorable places around the apiary, and used a flamethrower to copy some beeswax bought on the Internet.

Bees are very sensitive to the smell of beeswax, attracted by the smell of beeswax, it will be easy to find the location of the beehive, if it is a scout bee who is out looking for a nest, it will easily lead the separated bee colony directly to the hive.

This is the most common and practical way to lure a bee colony.

The reason why Wang Mingyuan is not in a hurry to search for bees or buy bees is that this method can obtain a large number of bee colonies at a small cost.

The surrounding area is deep in the mountains and old forests, and the situation of exploring the mountains shows that there are a lot of bees in this place, who would do those thankless things.

As the saying goes: beekeeping does not need to be planted, as long as you make buckets frequently.

The beehives are ready, roast some beeswax, and just wait!

And the next day, the swarm of bees began to gradually become orderly after a messy time to confirm the location of the hive, and the bees began to come in and out, and the bees began to bring clumps of pollen.

"This swarm of bees, steady!"

Wang Mingyuan squatted next to the beehive, looking at the busy elves, his heart was warm, and he felt like he was back when he was a child, squatting next to his grandfather's beehive in Zhangjiaao to watch the bees go in and out.

Everything was so beautiful.

Yesterday, two videos, one was named "Bee Come" by Wang Mingyuan, and the other was named "Water Scoop Bee", both of which were uploaded to the cat's paw video.

The astonishing scenes attracted many fans who were very curious about this situation, and many of them were beekeeping enthusiasts. In just one night, the number of his fans increased by more than a thousand.

Many novices who like beekeeping leave messages below asking about beekeeping methods, and many are all kinds of exclamations, but more are asking when the broadcast will start and what insects to eat next time, which makes Wang Mingyuan speechless for a while.

He was very skeptical of the correctness of eating locusts in his first live broadcast.

In addition to the well-known bamboo insects, firewood insects, bee pupae and grasshoppers, other insects are all challenges for Wang Mingyuan.

Now that the live broadcast, Wang Mingyuan is unprepared, he decided to postpone it a little, for the kind of live broadcast that is full of saliva or all kinds of funny things, he really can't come to the whole thing, and the live broadcast has no quality at all.

After thinking about it, it will soon be another weekend, so Wang Mingyuan added a preview to the video: "At three o'clock in the afternoon on Saturday, live broadcast, eat fried dragonflies!" ”

There's a lot to do these days.
