You might try contacting the Chamber of Commerce at Uvalde. In 1938 - 1939 I worked for a beekeeper who kept a couple of hundred hives southwest of there for the Huajillo honey. It is spectacular and considered one of the choice honeys of the world. The area between Uvalde and the Rio Grande was probably the only area where pure (or near pure) Huajillo could be obtained. Horse Mint honey is good and has a distinctive flavor even when it is only part of the whole. Beekeepers in the Waco or Cameron areas might be of help. Orange blossom should be easy. Just locate a beekeep or two in the Orlando area.

Four tips: Break the supers apart on your previous visit so that there is no brace comb, otherwise bees will become stuck to the honey when blowing. Tip the supers up and blow the bees out in front of the hive. Start by blowing from the top of the super - combs are normally wider at the top and blowing from the bottom will wedge a lot of bees together - then reverse the super and blow from the bottom to clear the last few. Waggle to nozzle from side to side - they hang on tight in a steady stream of air.

The older colony has a 2-story brood chamber and I added a honey super in mid-July. When I opened up the honey super, there wasn't much to look at. Just a few frames with drawn foundation. When I checked the upper super, I found almost all of the frames full of capped honey. (It weighed a ton!). The queen obviously never made it into the 2nd story. The bottom super frames had some some (very little) capped brood. At least I think it was capped brood (do they cap pollen?). I also found a capped queen cell. The whole operation took me a little over a 1/2 hour and towards the end they were getting very cranky and starting to gather on the outside of the super. Fearing they were on their way to another home, I closed up and called it a day. Before I did, I took a frame that had some capped brood (hopefully) and put it in the hive that was started from the late swarm. I also put the honey super between the 2 deep supers. I was told to do this for a week or so to get them to draw out the frames and start storing honey. My questions are: 1. Are they going to swarm this late in the year (I live in N.E. Ohio). Or are they superceding? 2. Are they too confined since the upper box is full of honey? 3. Can I take some of this honey or do they need it all to survive the winter?

I got help from a professional programmer , against payment (1500USD), to get this software to perform error free. It has now succeeded in running stable and without errors on my computer for 14 days and all functions have been tested. This edition have taken all my money from my bank account set aside for Apimondia in South Africa, and because I am unemployed and living from work insurance, this will be the last public update from my Hand. Those with big registration will still get information of updates coming. There is following news in the software. If the queen is changed the old queen will be preserved in a special database, so that she can be used in further expansions of the queen breeder mode. If you wish an Automatic generated queen identification will be made. It consist of the following elements. up to four chars in initials followed by a number determining the race of bees. then two numbers determining the year the queen is introduced. then up to a number of 2million as a serial number and then a slash and the number of the hive where the queen first is introduced. Additional can be added the queen line in the form of F00, F001 up to F99. The queen line can be obtained from a dropdown list. This should assure a unique number for all queens. there are space for 99999 queens. and up to 2 billions records in the database so even with a unusual number of hive notes I don't think you will run out of space. A queen number could look like this: JJoh30030-30F00 In my system the number 3 after the initials stands for Buckfast. This number by the way can be obtained from a dropdown list. The queen serial number will be shown both in the queen numbers and a special field (read Only) there can be given up to five drone sources to the queens. By the way the queen breeder input follows the Swedish Queen breeder register card. and all points are included. also is a change made so that when a new bee year starts (a new database is automatic created) a list of queens from last Year will be shown, so that queens still present can be imported to the new Bee Year. I know that a software of this kind always will be a compromise, but I have been concerned of being so all-round as possible. because my financial situation is bad, I will ask you to get the update yourself. http://apimo.dk/programs/bidatawin95_98_update4.exe this will be the last public update if membership of EDBi is not maintained or the software is not paid for otherwise.

It is crystals of Paradiclorobenzyne (sp?), which is also the same stuff as those white cakes found in urinals as a deodorizer. Supposedly it works by off-gassing and replaces the oxygen. Since it is a chemical treatment, I would not suggest using it before extracting. Many would say not to use it at all. Another treatment is to bag your hive box and put it in the freezer. A week ago I had a couple deep boxes of brood comb that had a few worms in it. I knew I needed to treat it quick before it got out of hand. I put them in garbage bags, put a spoonful of Paramoth on a sheet of newspaper, placed this on top of the frames and sealed the bag. Yesterday I was able to free up enough freezer space for one of these. I opened the bag to remove the Paramoth. On the paper I found about a dozen worms crawling around the crystals. It makes me wonder how well this stuff really works. Paul A few days ago, I popped the lid off of a hive for a routine check. Inside was more moths and cocoons then bees!! Out of a double supered hive there were only two frames, or so, of bees left. I salvaged the bees and put them into a new apartment. We'll see if they make it. My question is,,,,what are some of the wax moth treatments out there? Are they safe to use before extracting? Pros,,,,cons?

If you are planning on extracting 9-1/4" frames, they carry 2 extractors that will allow you to extract 3 frames tangentially. If you are using 5-3/8" or 6-1/4" frames, then these same extractors will allow 9 or 18 frames to be extracted radially. They are the "Deluxe 9 Frame Radial Hand Extractor" and the "Super Deluxe 18 Frame Radial Power Extractor". You can also use the order numbers L-150 and L-160 respectively. The website for Rossman Apiaries is www.gabees.com. They have a toll free number: 1-800-333-7677. As far as tangential verses radial extracting, radial extractors have 2 advantages over tangential. First, you can fit more frames into a radial extractor, and second, radial extracting does not damage the comb as much since there is less lateral pressure applied across the foundation.

I have used both. My friend has a manual 4 frame tangential extractor. Works fine but if you start cranking to hard on the handle you can push your drawn comb right through the basket. I bought a used dadant radial this year. It handles 6 deep and 12 medium frames and I love it. No reversing of frames...no worry about blowing out the drawn comb. Only problem is that when I turn on the juice and it gets up to speed it tends to walk around a bit. But I can put up with that. Cost was less than $500 vs $900 or so for a brand new one. I'd try advertising in your local paper for a WTB or asking around and see if there's a beekeeping association nearby.

IT DOES WORK! : I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it. A little : while back, I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are now, : and came across an article similar to this that said you could make : thousands of dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of : $6.00! So I thought, "Yeah right, this must be a scam", but : like most of us, I was curious, so I kept reading. Anyway, it said : that you send $1.00 to each of the 6 names and address stated in the : article. You then place your own name and address in the bottom of : the list at #6, and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups. : (There are thousands) No catch, that was it. So after thinking it : over, and talking to a few people first, I thought about trying it. I : figured: "what have I got to lose except 6 stamps and $6.00, : right?" Then I invested the measly $6.00. Well GUESS WHAT!?... : within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail! I was shocked! I : figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In my : first week, I made about $25.00. By the end of the second week I had : made a total of over $1,000.00! In the third week I had over : $10,000.00 and it's still growing. This is now my fourth week and I : have made a total of just over $42,000.00 and it's still coming in : rapidly. It's certainly worth $6.00, and 6 stamps, I have spent more : than that on the lottery!! Let me tell you how this works and most : importantly, WHY it works... Also, make sure you print a copy of this : article NOW, so you can get the information off of it as you need it. : I promise you that if you follow the directions exactly, that you : will start making more money than you thought possible by doing : something so easy! : Suggestion: Read this entire message carefully! (print it out or : download it.) Follow the simple directions and watch the money come : in! : It's easy. It's legal. And, your investment is only $6.00 (Plus : postage) : IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off; it is not indecent; it is not : illegal; and it is 99% no risk - it really works! : If all of the following instructions are adhered to, you will receive : extraordinary dividends. : PLEASE NOTE: : Please follow these directions EXACTLY, and $50,000 or more can be : yours in 20 to 60 days. This program remains successful because of : the honesty and integrity of the participants. Please continue its : success by carefully adhering to the instructions. : You will now become part of the Mail Order business. In this business : your product is not solid and tangible, it's a service. You are in : the business of developing Mailing Lists. Many large corporations are : happy to pay big bucks for quality lists. However, the money made : from the mailing lists is secondary to the income which is made from : people like you and me asking to be included in that list. : Here are the 4 easy steps to success: : STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on : each piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Now : get 6 US $1.00 bills and place ONE inside EACH of the 6 pieces of : paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope (to prevent : thievery). Next, place one paper in each of the 6 envelopes and seal : them. You should now have 6 sealed envelopes, each with a piece of : paper stating the above phrase, your name and address, and a $1.00 : bill. What you are doing is creating a service. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY : LEGAL! You are requesting a legitimate service and you are paying for : it! Like most of us I was a little skeptical and a little worried : about the legal aspects of it all. So I checked it out with the U.S. : Post Office (1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that it is indeed : legal. Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses: : #1) Wit Wichaidit : 10912 Broad Green Terrace : Potomac, MD 20854 : #2) Mike Schude : 893 S. roanoke : Gilbert, AZ 85296 : #3) David Freeman : 11045 Harbour Springs Circle : Boca Raton, Fl 33428 : #4) E. Benford :6656 Mableton Pwky APT.#D4 : Mableton, GA.. 30126 : #5) Kim Williams : 3334 Kingsland Avenue : Bronx, NY 10469 : #6) Heather Claxton 548 Keener Road Seymour, TN 37865 : STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move : the other names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc...) and add YOUR : Name as number 6 on the list. : STEP 3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article as : close to original as possible. Now, post your amended article to at : least 200 newsgroups. (I think there are close to 24,000 groups) All : you need is 200, but remember, the more you post, the more money you : make! You won't get very much unless you post like crazy. :) : This is perfectly legal! If you have any doubts, refer to Title 18 : Sec. 1302 & 1341 of the Postal lottery laws. : Keep a copy of these steps for yourself and, whenever you need money, : you can use it again, and again. : PLEASE REMEMBER that this program remains successful because of the : honesty and integrity of the participants and by their carefully : adhering to the directions. Look at it this way. If you are of : integrity, the program will continue and the money that so many : others have received will come your way. : NOTE: You may want to retain every name and address sent to you, : either on a computer or hard copy and keep the notes people send you. : This VERIFIES that you are truly providing a service. (Also, it might : be a good idea to wrap the $1 bill in dark paper to reduce the risk : of mail theft.) : So, as each post is downloaded and the directions carefully followed, : six members will be reimbursed for their participation as a List : Developer with one dollar each. Your name will move up the list : geometrically so that when your name reaches the #1 position you will : be receiving thousands of dollars in CASH!!! What an opportunity for : only $6.00 ($1.00 for each of the first six people listed above) Send : it now, add your own name to the list and you're in business! : ---DIRECTIONS ----- FOR HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS------------ : Step 1) You do not need to re-type this entire letter to do your own : posting. Simply put your cursor at the beginning of this letter and : drag your cursor to the bottom of this document, and select 'copy' : from the edit menu. This will copy the entire letter into the : computer's memory. : Step 2) Open a blank 'notepad' file and place your cursor at the top : of the blank page. From the 'edit' menu select 'paste'. This will : paste a copy of the letter into notepad so that you can add your name : to the list. Step 3) Save your new notepad file as a .txt file. If : you want to do your postings in different settings, you'll always : have this file to go back to. : Step 4) Use Netscape or Internet explorer and try searching for : various newsgroups (on-line forums, message boards, chat sites, : discussions.) : Step 5) Visit these message boards and post this article as a new : message by highlighting the text of this letter and selecting paste : from the edit menu. Fill in the Subject, this will be the header that : everyone sees as they scroll through the list of postings in a : particular group, click the post message button. You're done with : your first one! Congratulations...THAT'S IT! All you have to do is : jump to different newsgroups and post away, after you get the hang of : it, it will take about 30 seconds for each newsgroup! **REMEMBER, THE : MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE! BUT : YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200** That's it! You will begin receiving : money from around the world within days! You may eventually want to : rent a P.O.Box due to the large amount of mail you will receive. If : you wish to stay anonymous, you can invent a name to use, as long as : the postman will deliver it. **JUST MAKE SURE ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE : CORRECT.** : Now, : each of the 5 persons who just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 200 : postings, each with my name at #5 and only 5 persons respond to each : of the original 5, that is another $25.00 for me, now those 25 each : make 200 MINIMUM posts with my name at #4 and only 5 replies each, I : will bring in an additional $125.00! Now, those 125 persons turn : around and post the MINIMUM 200 with my name at #3 and only receive 5 : replies each, I will make an additional $625.00! OK, now here is the : fun part, each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200 letters with : my name at #2 and they each only receive 5 replies, that just made me : $3,125.00!!! Those 3,125 persons will all deliver this message to 200 : newsgroups with my name at #1 and if still 5 persons per 200 : newsgroups react I will receive $15,625,00! With an original : investment of only $6.00! AMAZING! When your name is no longer on the : list, you just take the latest posting in the newsgroups, and send : out another $6.00 to names on the list, putting your name at number 6 : again. And start posting again. The thing to remember is: do you : realize that thousands of people all over the world are joining the : internet and reading these articles everyday?, JUST LIKE YOU are : now!! So, can you afford $6.00 and see if it really works?? I think : so... People have said, "what if the plan is played out and no : one sends you the money? So what! What are the chances of that : happening when there are tons of new honest users and new honest : people who are joining the internet and newsgroups everyday and are : willing to give it a try?

IT DOES WORK! : I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it. A little : while back, I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are now, : and came across an article similar to this that said you could make : thousands of dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of : $6.00! So I thought, "Yeah right, this must be a scam", but : like most of us, I was curious, so I kept reading. Anyway, it said : that you send $1.00 to each of the 6 names and address stated in the : article. You then place your own name and address in the bottom of : the list at #6, and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups. : (There are thousands) No catch, that was it. So after thinking it : over, and talking to a few people first, I thought about trying it. I : figured: "what have I got to lose except 6 stamps and $6.00, : right?" Then I invested the measly $6.00. Well GUESS WHAT!?... : within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail! I was shocked! I : figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In my : first week, I made about $25.00. By the end of the second week I had : made a total of over $1,000.00! In the third week I had over : $10,000.00 and it's still growing. This is now my fourth week and I : have made a total of just over $42,000.00 and it's still coming in : rapidly. It's certainly worth $6.00, and 6 stamps, I have spent more : than that on the lottery!! Let me tell you how this works and most : importantly, WHY it works... Also, make sure you print a copy of this : article NOW, so you can get the information off of it as you need it. : I promise you that if you follow the directions exactly, that you : will start making more money than you thought possible by doing : something so easy! : Suggestion: Read this entire message carefully! (print it out or : download it.) Follow the simple directions and watch the money come : in! : It's easy. It's legal. And, your investment is only $6.00 (Plus : postage) : IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off; it is not indecent; it is not : illegal; and it is 99% no risk - it really works! : If all of the following instructions are adhered to, you will receive : extraordinary dividends. : PLEASE NOTE: : Please follow these directions EXACTLY, and $50,000 or more can be : yours in 20 to 60 days. This program remains successful because of : the honesty and integrity of the participants. Please continue its : success by carefully adhering to the instructions. : You will now become part of the Mail Order business. In this business : your product is not solid and tangible, it's a service. You are in : the business of developing Mailing Lists. Many large corporations are : happy to pay big bucks for quality lists. However, the money made : from the mailing lists is secondary to the income which is made from : people like you and me asking to be included in that list. : Here are the 4 easy steps to success: : STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on : each piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Now : get 6 US $1.00 bills and place ONE inside EACH of the 6 pieces of : paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope (to prevent : thievery). Next, place one paper in each of the 6 envelopes and seal : them. You should now have 6 sealed envelopes, each with a piece of : paper stating the above phrase, your name and address, and a $1.00 : bill. What you are doing is creating a service. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY : LEGAL! You are requesting a legitimate service and you are paying for : it! Like most of us I was a little skeptical and a little worried : about the legal aspects of it all. So I checked it out with the U.S. : Post Office (1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that it is indeed : legal. Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses: : #1) Wit Wichaidit : 10912 Broad Green Terrace : Potomac, MD 20854 : #2) Mike Schude : 893 S. roanoke : Gilbert, AZ 85296 : #3) David Freeman : 11045 Harbour Springs Circle : Boca Raton, Fl 33428 : #4) E. Benford :6656 Mableton Pwky APT.#D4 : Mableton, GA.. 30126 : #5) Kim Williams : 3334 Kingsland Avenue : Bronx, NY 10469 : #6) Heather Claxton 548 Keener Road Seymour, TN 37865 : STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move : the other names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc...) and add YOUR : Name as number 6 on the list. : STEP 3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article as : close to original as possible. Now, post your amended article to at : least 200 newsgroups. (I think there are close to 24,000 groups) All : you need is 200, but remember, the more you post, the more money you : make! You won't get very much unless you post like crazy. :) : This is perfectly legal! If you have any doubts, refer to Title 18 : Sec. 1302 & 1341 of the Postal lottery laws. : Keep a copy of these steps for yourself and, whenever you need money, : you can use it again, and again. : PLEASE REMEMBER that this program remains successful because of the : honesty and integrity of the participants and by their carefully : adhering to the directions. Look at it this way. If you are of : integrity, the program will continue and the money that so many : others have received will come your way. : NOTE: You may want to retain every name and address sent to you, : either on a computer or hard copy and keep the notes people send you. : This VERIFIES that you are truly providing a service. (Also, it might : be a good idea to wrap the $1 bill in dark paper to reduce the risk : of mail theft.) : So, as each post is downloaded and the directions carefully followed, : six members will be reimbursed for their participation as a List : Developer with one dollar each. Your name will move up the list : geometrically so that when your name reaches the #1 position you will : be receiving thousands of dollars in CASH!!! What an opportunity for : only $6.00 ($1.00 for each of the first six people listed above) Send : it now, add your own name to the list and you're in business! : ---DIRECTIONS ----- FOR HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS------------ : Step 1) You do not need to re-type this entire letter to do your own : posting. Simply put your cursor at the beginning of this letter and : drag your cursor to the bottom of this document, and select 'copy' : from the edit menu. This will copy the entire letter into the : computer's memory. : Step 2) Open a blank 'notepad' file and place your cursor at the top : of the blank page. From the 'edit' menu select 'paste'. This will : paste a copy of the letter into notepad so that you can add your name : to the list. Step 3) Save your new notepad file as a .txt file. If : you want to do your postings in different settings, you'll always : have this file to go back to. : Step 4) Use Netscape or Internet explorer and try searching for : various newsgroups (on-line forums, message boards, chat sites, : discussions.) : Step 5) Visit these message boards and post this article as a new : message by highlighting the text of this letter and selecting paste : from the edit menu. Fill in the Subject, this will be the header that : everyone sees as they scroll through the list of postings in a : particular group, click the post message button. You're done with : your first one! Congratulations...THAT'S IT! All you have to do is : jump to different newsgroups and post away, after you get the hang of : it, it will take about 30 seconds for each newsgroup! **REMEMBER, THE : MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE! BUT : YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200** That's it! You will begin receiving : money from around the world within days! You may eventually want to : rent a P.O.Box due to the large amount of mail you will receive. If : you wish to stay anonymous, you can invent a name to use, as long as : the postman will deliver it. **JUST MAKE SURE ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE : CORRECT.** : Now, : each of the 5 persons who just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 200 : postings, each with my name at #5 and only 5 persons respond to each : of the original 5, that is another $25.00 for me, now those 25 each : make 200 MINIMUM posts with my name at #4 and only 5 replies each, I : will bring in an additional $125.00! Now, those 125 persons turn : around and post the MINIMUM 200 with my name at #3 and only receive 5 : replies each, I will make an additional $625.00! OK, now here is the : fun part, each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200 letters with : my name at #2 and they each only receive 5 replies, that just made me : $3,125.00!!! Those 3,125 persons will all deliver this message to 200 : newsgroups with my name at #1 and if still 5 persons per 200 : newsgroups react I will receive $15,625,00! With an original : investment of only $6.00! AMAZING! When your name is no longer on the : list, you just take the latest posting in the newsgroups, and send : out another $6.00 to names on the list, putting your name at number 6 : again. And start posting again. The thing to remember is: do you : realize that thousands of people all over the world are joining the : internet and reading these articles everyday?, JUST LIKE YOU are : now!! So, can you afford $6.00 and see if it really works?? I think : so... People have said, "what if the plan is played out and no : one sends you the money? So what! What are the chances of that : happening when there are tons of new honest users and new honest : people who are joining the internet and newsgroups everyday and are : willing to give it a try? Estimates are at 20,000 to 50,000 new : users, every day, with thousands of those joining the actual : internet. Remember, play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this will really : work. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Follow Ups: Re: Earn Extra Cash! NOT!!

I checked on them Labor Day and they didn't seem to be doing much but I found some larva so I thought they might be OK. Today I noticed a lot of activity outside of the hive so I thought that a bunch of brood may have hatched. When I took a closer look, I found bees and wasps in battle. It looked like the bees were out-numbered. I got my bee suit and opened up the outer cover and quite a few yellow jackets came at me. Although I didn't get any further into the hive, it really looks more like a yellow jacket hive from the outside now. Has anyone ever experienced this before??? Is there anything I can do? My first thought is to dismantle the hive and write this one off. It was a small swarm and I wasn't to confident that they'd build up enough for the (Ohio) winter. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have upgraded to a radial this year and like it. The tangential 2 frame that I used required you to reverse the frames and took a long time to do a super. The tangential put more force on the frame and did sometimes distort the foundation. It flings the honey out better than the radial when the honey is cold. The radial I use is from Walter Kelly company and does 21 medium or shallow frames and 9 deep frames. There is no reversing and this is what I needed with for my 19 hives.

I'm a novice beekeeper, but my experience is that: 1) Since YJ's live in the ground, they're probably not living in the hive, but, rather 2) They're robbing your honey, eating your brood, and basically wreaking havoc with the hive. This late in the year, I'd imagine you'll lose everything.

I have 2 hives doing well, 2 full brood boxes on each hive and 1 honey super on each as well. Since I started with foundation only on most of the frames, the colony spent their energy on drawing out the comb and therefore not a lot of honey (2-3 completely capped frames) up top, hence no harvest this year. Based on my research and reading, I was planning on moving the honey supers above the inside cover, so that the honey is available to the colony during the fall. I was also planning on using Cappings scratcher to open up the capped honey so that the honey supers would be picked clean and I could remove the honey supers for the winter. Is this a sound strategy and will the bee clean it up? I've read that it is not recommended to leave the honey supers on (below the inner cover) over the winter since the colony and queen will usually move up to the honey super and begin rearing brood there. Bottom line, I want to make sure there is enough food and remove my nicely drawn out honey supers so I can use them next year. Thoughts, comments.

Would it be correct that the homeothermic heat for the 100 plus bees is generated by the metabolic activity of the bees as they eat their stored honey? Do they all take turns eating honey, so that ones on the bottom of the pile change places with the other bees higher up in the cluster? I believe that one of the newsgroup members made a reference one time to the bees rotating around in their cluster like that.
