USING FLEXIBLE PIPES TO REMOVE BEES FROM INACCESSIBLE PLACES G F MacRobert, Zimbabwe A gardener was stung by bees when cutting grass near a stone wall in which there was a nest of bees. was asked to remove the bees and the owner hoped that would be able to do so without harming them. On inspection it was apparent that the nest was in an inaccessible cavity inside the wall which was 600 mm thick and built of large stones and mortar. The bees were using small holes in the mortar on both sides of the wall as entrances. To remove the colony I decided to use a method which I had read about but I had not tried before. |
|
first thing to do was to obtain a short length of flexible plastic pipe about 50 mm in _
_
diameter and 1500 mm long. An old piece of pipe from a suction cleaner served the purpase very well A hole to receive one end of the pipe was made in a piece of wood. This was then fitted over the bee escape hole in the inner
cover of a Langstroth movable-frame hive. The hive so prepared, complete with a full set of frames with foundation wax, was then taken to
the site early one evening. As soon as all the foragers had returned to the hive some gentle puffs of smoke were applied to the flight holes and the flight hole selected for the transfer was enlarged, using hammer and chisel When a
the hole was sufficiently large, the free end of the pipe was inserted into It and sealed on the -
*
ide with mud. Similarly the other end of dipe, where it entered the hive, was sealed
around the outside to prevent bees escaping. Bees which had been disturbed by the
hammering and had emerged through the other flight holes were driven back with smoke and these holes were then sealed off with mud
To protect the hive from rain a roof was placed over it, supported on bricks at the corners so
that the presence of the imported brood would encourage the queen to move over in due
course. After some two to three weeks of
The following day bees began to emerge from the hive entrance, having passed through the pipe and down through the hive The bees were left undisturbed for five days and then a
moved from the old nest to the hive. A bee
escape device was then inserted in the inner cover under the incoming end of the pipe and
come through to the hive, whilst at the same time preventing any bees from returning to the
old nest. To encourage brood rearing in the new hive several feeds of sugar syrup were given using a feeder fitted into the entrance of the hive.
Eventually the hive was moved to a bee house am glad to say that it is progressing well. The gardener at the colony's original home is |
very happy that he can cut the grass without worrying about the bees
The method has also been used to remove
bees from an old 200 litre drum. Near the top of the drum was a hole being used by bees. The hole was enlarged using a pair of tin snips

With this years’ venue in China there were particularly strong delegations from those Asian countries where many are involved with commercial beekeeping or research. The delegation from Thailand, of over 40 persons, thoughtfully provided a printed booklet introducing all the Thai participants! The Congress was held on the outskirts of Beijing, in the complex originally built for the Asian Games in 1990, and it proved a good venue: large auditoria, meeting rooms, space for displays, restaurants and hotels all within walking distance.
Beijing provided a welcoming venue for September's APIMONDIA Congress.
APIMONDIA is the International Federation of Beekeepers’ Associations. The Congress attracts thousands of people because this is the largest meeting of its kind. It offers an unparalleled opportunity to meet colleagues in the beekeeping world; beekeepers, research scientists, honey traders, equipment manufacturers, and indeed many other interested persons. L
Several thousand people from over 50 countries attended the Congress
National beekeeping associations can join the APIMONDIA Federation, and thus become Member Countries, with the right to vote at the Congress. Good news from this Congress is that delegates voted to reduce (to US$100 ) the joining fee for associations in developing countries
It was a seven day meeting. There were sessions where people presented reports of new research or beekeeping activities, there were formal and informal discussion meetings, visits to places of beekeeping interest, and social events.
Information was presented according to subject: bee biology, pathology, beekeeping economy and technology, beekeeping in developing countries, pollination, and apitherapy. For each subject there were oral and poster presentations, round table discussions and opportunities for resolutions to be passed In addition, individual groups organised their own meetings. For example, interested people met to discuss the control of honeybee disease in the Mediterranean basin.
There was much fresh information with new facts concerning the biology of the less wellknown honeybee species, and further discussion of exactly how many honeybee species exist: could Apis nigrocincta, honeybee found in Indonesia, be another separate a

New technology was described too, such as more simple apparatus for the instrumental
insemination of queen bees. EXPO is the trade exhibition which accompanies the Congress. In Beijing this meant many stands displaying brightlypackaged royal jelly, and many other items containing royal jelly: with ginseng, with pollen, with bee extract. Such products mean important business for the Chinese: they harvest over 1000 tonnes of royal jelly every year, consume much of it themselves, and export around 400 tonnes to industrialised countries.
Colonies of western honeybees, Apis mellifera, were first introduced to China just under 100 Today 6 8 million
colonies of these bees form the mainstay of Chinese beekeeping and far outnumber the native hive bee, Apis cerana (25 million colonies).‘ The average annual yield from each Apis mellifera colony is about 30 kg, and in total almost ,000 tonnes of honey are produced each The Chinese beekeeping industry is skilled at marketing honey: it is sold not only as pure honey, but with specially branded honeys ‘for the aged’, ‘for the young’, ‘for sports players’ - these are all ways of selling more honey. Honey wine, honey beer, honey health drink and honey fruit juice are examples of ‘value added products which are widely promoted. Delegates visited the Chinese Apicultural Research Institute where they watched royal jelly harvest in action. The Institute works on bee disease analysis and control, honey analysis, and pollination studies, and also assists the beekeeping industry developing new products and selecting strains of bees for years ago, in 1896.
'
particular purposes. Breeding programmes have selected honeybees which are particularly prolific royal jelly producers. colonies of strain HF 414, produce up to four kilograms of royal jelly per year. Strain HF 213 is a prolific honey producer.
Another visit was to Beijing Bee Products Company, a corporation which buys honey, royal jelly, propolis, beeswax and pollen, processes them for sale within China and also for export, and develops new products containing these basic commodities. The company operates at a profit of two million Yuan (US$330,000) per year. The APIMONDIA Congress is very big: it is almost impossible to attend all the talks and to meet with everyone there. found the Congress to be stimulating and positive, happy and very friendly. It provided a remarkable opportunity to meet and talk with bee people from over 50 countries. The Chinese, emerging into more open nation, gave APIMONDIA a superb springboard for this truly international event - their welcoming hospitality and organisation of the Congress was outstanding. |

ASIAN APICULTURAL ASSOCIATION MEMBERS MEET IN
BENING
During the Apimondia Congress in Beijing a formal meeting of AAA was held. The meeting, chaired by the General Secretary, Dr Matsuo Matsuka, was attended by about 80 people. The President of AAA, Professor Tetsuo Sakai gave a welcoming address and Vice-Presidents Professor Siriwat Wongsiri and Professor L R Verma were also in attendance.
AAA now has
|4 Chapters (or sub-groups) and Members from India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Nepal, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam gave short reports of recent news from their
country.
A major topic for discussion was the forthcoming AAA Conference in Indonesia: the organisers are keen to make this a very useful and productive meeting, and hope to have bee scientists and beekeepers from all Asian countries represented. During the Apimondia Congress many papers gave new facts on the biology of Asian bees, and the Indonesian Conference will provide next year's venue for up-to-date exchange of information.
One problem facing AAA is that some Members are forgetting that their subscriptions must be paid every year. As with all successful organisations, AAA depends upon Members paying their subscriptions on time!

People in this area prize honey, there is a wide range of plants and fruit trees for forage, and wood for hives is available locally Not only will families boost their incomes but increased pollination will mean better fruit harvests.
Twenty five hives were bought in from Pakistan and transported to Badakshan before the winter of 1992 Of these, four colonies did not survive the winter. Several women who were previously employed in the Ministry of Agriculture have expressed keen interest in the project they will be trained by Afghanaid in beekeeping techniques enabling them to train the women in the 21 families who will receive the hives. mE

Beekeeping in Libya is hobby more than it is ajob. Most beekeepers have 10-20 hives and rely on transportation of their apiaries depending on nectar flow. Today in Libya there are 3000 beekeepers who harvest 500 tonnes of honey per year from 50,000 hives (an rage of 15 kg per colony). The number of hives is increasing by 20% every year. a
INFORMATION ON
AGRICULTURE International provides information and scientific, develogyment and training services on agriculture and related disciplineg
Production of high quality honey exceeds consumption. The most importation honeys come from thyme and nabk. Honey is expensive: from 18-308 per kilo. The Department of Development and Modernisation of Beekeeping is attached to the Ministry of Agriculture. This department gives assistance in management of bees including the manufacture of hives and the exportation of honey, training and queen rearing centres. Varroa was introduced to Libya in 1975 when 5000 colonies were imported from Bulgaria to support agricultural development. Varroa is treated with Apistan and Apitol. American and European Foulbrood, and chalkbrood were brought into the country at the same time as 9a. Foulbrood is controlled by burning the cted hives.

SUDA. The Sudanese Beekeeping Society was founded in 1990. It is a voluntary society open to all Sudanese who are interested in beekeeping. There are currently 118 registered members, all with differing expertise in beekeeping and all have attended training courses. The Society aims to establish a beekeeping industry based on sustainable beekeeping. To do this the Society is distributing a newsletter and conducting lectures and training programmes; liaising with local NGOs; conducting trials in conjunction with research institutes to study Sudanese bees, and create
appropriate techniques for beekeeping in Sudan. Source:

Geography There are four main geographical areas: the Andes, the North and Mesopotamia; the Pampas and Patagonia. The climate and geography show great variation from subtropical in the North to the sub-Antarctic cold of the Patagonian Sea. Mount Aconcagua at almost 7000m is the highest mountain of South America.
Atlantic Ocean
’in crops Argentina is one of the world’s major exporters of wheat. Maize, oilseeds, sorghum, soya beans and sugar are also grown on a large scale
Honeybees Honeybees are not native to South America. Apis mellifera honeybees from Europe were introduced first (Apis mellifera mellifera and Apis mellifera ligustica) and subsequently Africanized honeybees arrived in 1965. In southern parts of Argentina bees remain predominantly
European.
Beekeeping All beekeeping is with movable-frame hives: it is against the law to use hives without movable-frames
Honeybee diseases and parasites Chalkbrood, European Foulbrood, Nosema apis, Varroa jacobsoni (identified in 1976). Mallophora ruficaunda has been identified as a serious predator in the province of Buenos Aires
:
Argentina is one of the world’s largest exporters of sunflower oil, and as honeybees are needed to pollinate this crop, sunflower is an important honey source: over 30,000 colonies are employed in sunflower pollination Eucalyptus, clover and lucerne are also major honey sources, as is the thistle-like plant Cynara cardunculus.

Apicujiure in China Chief Editor Chen Yaochun. Agricultural Publishing House, Beijing, China (1993) 180 pages. Hardback. In English 17.00
This marvellous guide to apiculture in China was prepared especially for the Apimondia Congress. It starts with the history of beekeeping in China, from the first steps towards managing bees in log hives during the years 25-220 AD. Perhaps Jiang Qi, who lived between 215 and 282 AD was the first beekeeping extentionist: he taught beekeeping skills to over 300 people This is
comprehensive publication seemingly covering all aspects of Chinese apiculture. Much useful data is given for example the Chinese standards for beeswax and honey, information on honey plants, hive types, practices in different regions of the country, training courses, and on the wealth of Chinese beekeeping literature. This book provides a fascinating glimpse into a great beekeeping culture which has until! so recently been quite unknown by outsiders. a
The clearly-written text is accompanied by many interesting colour illustrations.

Heilongjiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences,
An important reference work: 543 species of nectar and pollen plants are described. Most are accompanied by a botanical drawing and in addition there are 114 excellent colour photographs: many of these manage to show a bee foraging on the flower of the species. The text is in Chinese but the Latin names of plant families and species are given, making this book of great value and interest to bee botanists. There is an English alphabetical index together with common names, and listing by family. Finally there are 506 electron micrographs of pollen grains. A classic work by Professor Xu Wanlin.
