Arrange a 'Holiday Hive Check' if you are going away, need a break, are unwell or just can't keep up.
To prevent swarming and to keep the hive healthy, beekeepers need to check their hives every 7 - 10 days during active season.
Swarms can get into nasty spaces, destroy native animal habitats and deplete your hive numbers. Hives might swarm due to lack of space in the hive, queen issues or the hive might be honey bound.
$50 for one hive (no mentoring) within Wyndham City Victoria
$15 per additional hive
* Additional costs may apply for hives outside the Wyndham City area.
