Home | Bee Education | December Beekeeping Tasks

• Ensure your hives have ample carbohydrate supplies (honey and/or winter supplements).

• Lift up on the back of your hives to check weight for honey stores.  If they feel light, feed winter supplements immediately.

• December is a good time to medicate for varroa. Use Hopguard or OAV (oxalic acid vaporization).

• Continue honeybee education, inventory supplies, and prepare for spring.
