We’ll cover the critical pillars of a hive inspection, including:
Queen Status: Verifying her location below the excluder and performing a quick clip for safety.
Brood Patterns: Checking for fresh eggs and larvae in the new brood nest while seeing how much of the old brood has hatched out up top.
Nectar Management: Assessing how the bees are backfilling frames as the spring flow begins.
Action Steps: Demonstrating how to “checkerboard” frames to provide the queen more laying space and keep that swarming impulse suppressed.
Whether you are a beginner or looking for advanced beekeeping techniques, understanding the Demaree method is a game-changer for keeping your bees at home and filling your honey supers.
