Why did 40% of colonies perish in the US last winter. Will your hives be part of next winter's statistics?  

It is easy to assume all is well during the summer and fall with our bees. Watching them fly in and out can be misleading.
Many beekeepers observe "lots of bees" flying in and out and assume all is well. However, the bees flying in and out in the summer and early fall have a short life span of about 45 days. For your colony to survive the winter you must carefully manage, control and achieve certain goals and results now in late summer and fall. To achieve a strong survival rate of honey bees we must send healthy bees into the long months of winter along with food. But, these honey bees cannot make it unless they are bees that are of winter physiology. Your summer and early fall bees will likely only live two months at most while winter bees live 4-6 months.

All Your Hard Beekeeping Work And Money Can Go Down The Drain From This

We 
DavidSheri
are David and Sheri Burns from Long Lane Honey Bee Farms and Honeybeesonline.com. 50 years ago today Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins, and Buzz Aldrin climbed aboard Saturn V for their journey to the moon. A man on the moon use to be only a dream. We can accomplish so much when we put our mind to it. Beekeeping has come a long way in the last 50 years as well. 50 years ago we did not have mites in the US. Now we do. Mites are the number one reason colonies fail in the winter. Beekeepers often convince themselves that they do not have mites then wonder why their hives died in the winter. 

Even though we may have our minds on honey production and harvest, the next 4 months are the most crucial to keep our colonies from becoming infected with viruses spread by mites only to perish in the winter.

Over the last few months I've been working hard to produce a new resource for beekeepers explaining in detail how to combat mights. It is a new ONLINE COURSE ON MITE CONTROL. Many people pre-ordered the course several weeks ago, and it will go live later today. The price is $39 for the remainder of today but will be $59 after today. Save $20 and learn to control mites.

This course will show you how to effectively use Green Drone Comb, Oxalic Acid Vapor Treatment, Formic Acid Treatment, Powdered Sugar Dusting, Screen Bottom Boards, Breaking The Queens Brood Cycle, How To Test For Mites, How To Make Your Own Testing Jar, How To Calculate Your Findings To Determine If You Should Treat. Selecting The Appropriate Treatment Approach Based On Your Test Results.
This course was videotaped in hives to help you see how you perform mite test and appropriate approaches to control mites. This course is an ONLINE COURSE to be enjoyed on your own schedule, in the convenience of your home. You will NOT be with other online students. These are videos for you to enjoy privately, and they last forever so you can watch them when you are ready. You can pause and replay over and over. Upon completion of the included worksheet you also receive a certificate of completion. Click here to order now and began keeping healthy bees.

You've invested so much time and money into your hives, make sure you know how to prepare your hives for winter.
Our Overwintering Workshop is a 1 day class from 1pm-6pm Central Time, Saturday September 7th at our training center.

Everyone Is Already Calling Wanting One Of Our Winter-Bee-Kinds
Years ago certified master beekeeper, David Burns invented the Winter-Bee-Kind, a way to feed, insulate and ventilate a winter colony for maximum survival in the harshest winter environment.

The Dearth Has Hit Many Places 
A dearth means the major source of nectar and pollen has dramatically decreased for bees and they are starting to rely on stored pollen and honey in the hive. Sadly, some colonies can consume all of their winter stores even before winter begins. Do not let this happen. As soon as you see signs of a dearth, begin feeding your bees with our Burns Bees Feeding System. We recommend 1:1 sugar in late summer and fall to stimulate laying of bees of winter physiology. Also, add 1 teaspoon of our protein powder to 1 quart of 1:1 sugar water to give the bees the protein they need to produce royal jelly to feed your developing larvae.

We are glad you are keeping bees. Thank you for supporting our family business for all your beekeeping needs.
