We are increasing Ventilation in January. Listening to the Bees. We remove the Podmore.
January is a difficult period for bees and beekeepers. In January, if the beekeeper does not control the condition of the snakes, a brood may appear in bee colonies. In this case, most likely, the bees will not live until spring. To prevent this from happening, the beekeeper needs to ensure that there is active ventilation in wintering families. To clean the lettuce from the podmore, so that fresh air enters freely through the lettuce, and to make a vent at the top of the hive (if there was none) so that water vapor comes out. It is also desirable to listen to bees. Based on the noise, you can understand the condition of the bees.
