Aaaaand, thats a wrap folks!
FINALLY finished harvesting an absolute cracker of a season - we pulled over 160kg of honey this season!

60kg belongs to our beekeeping community here in Bridgetown, that we have helped them with their harvesting & spinning.

Now we have to figure out where/ how to store the other 100kg!

We are winding down for winter now - making sure the bees have enough resources to get them through winter. We are still helping some beekeepers with their pest blitzes, and will be checking in on the various hives we look after during the winter months.

How did your harvest go?

Another excellent day at the office! ❤️🐝

We've been working with these keen new beekeepers over the past few months, after they bought a property and found an old hive box under a tree. We helped them set up their new HiveIQ hardware and settle the colony into it. We got a bit side tracked by the arrival of their new bubba, but we were able to successfully harvest TWELVE frames!

We ended up harvesting over 25kg !!

Pretty exciting for them seeing as they didnt think they would have a beehive so soon after buying their property 🤣

You may have seen previous pics here when we set the hiveware up, with their horse watching on ❤️🐎

Need help with your hive? We can help ❤️🐝

🐝 Did you know April is Bee Blitz month?🐝

It’s the perfect time to give your hives a health check and help protect Western Australia’s bee population.

We’re encouraging all beekeepers to regularly inspect their hives and report anything unusual. Early detection is key to safeguarding our bee industry and the vital pollination services that support our agriculture and environment. 🌼

It’s also a requirement that all hives - whether commercial or hobby - are registered with the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD).

👉 If you’re a beekeeper, remember to:
• Register your hives
• Keep them clean and well-maintained
• Monitor regularly for any signs of pests or disease
• Report anything unusual straight away

Together, we can help keep WA’s bees healthy and thriving 🐝

Starting to tidy up ready for winter - checked 3 hives today to make sure everyone is OK.
First pic - A bit of an ant problem outside of the hive, but not inside, which is good 👌 Plans to get rid of the ant nest nearby
Second Pic - a bit cranky, but otherwise ok, we will leave this one u til Spring
Pic 3 & 4 - Super cranky hive has been requeened, so far so good, they are already a LOT calmer. We will revisit in a few weeks to see how they are going

Whats wrong with this pic?

Giving the bees *too much* space can cause cross combing (where they 'glue' the frames together) or they can fill up the gaps in the box.

Luckily, this beekeeper has found us!

We will be spending the next few weeks helping her tidy up the frames, harvest some honey, and get this hive ready to bunker down for winter.

Also, Bonus Goosies ❤️🪿

What a difference six months makes!
When we saw this hive in October, the lid was in poor condition (pic 1) and the bees were building into the lid (its called Burr Comb). We helped these beekeepers replace the lid and tidy up the hive.

Thanks to a cracker of a Marri season in the South West, today while we were requeening, (pics 2 - 4) and admiring their lovely unspoiled lid 🤣, we were able to remove the top super box so they can harvest.

How excellent is our bee removal technique 🤣

A quick blast from a leaf blower (or a smaller workshop blower) is painless for both the bees and the Beekeepers

Today's Pest Blitz session - we had a chat in the studio about what to look for, the importance of registering your hives and how to report your pest Blitz findings. We then headed out to one of our hives to run through the process

Another bunch of happy beekeepers ❤️🐝

Don't forget to Pest Blitz your hives during April, and report your findings to DPIRD
