[Q] What is the beeswax foundation sheet?

1. The nest foundation is an artificial basis for bees to build the nest. Using the nest foundation allows the bees to build a neat and sturdy nest to facilitate the management of the bee colony. There are two types of Italian honeycomb foundations, among which the room eyes of the medium honeycomb foundation are slightly smaller for the use of Chinese bees (Chinese honeybees), while the room eyes of the Italian honeycomb foundation are slightly larger for Italian bees (Italian honeybees).

2. The hive foundation must be designed strictly according to the size of the bee hive. For example, the width of the standard hive foundation hive is 4.61 mm, while the width of the standard intended hive foundation hive is 5.31 mm. In addition, there are two types of nest foundations, wax nest foundations and plastic nest foundations, due to different raw materials. Wax nest foundations are mainly used in beekeeping production.

[Q] What kinds of beeswax foundation sheet are there?

1. There are two kinds of nest foundations: wax nest foundation and plastic nest foundation due to different production materials. Among them, wax nest foundation is made of beeswax as the main raw material, while plastic nest foundation is made of plastic as the main raw material. In the production of beekeeping, wax nest foundations are mainly used for bees to build their combs.

2. There are two types of nest foundations: medium honeycomb foundation and Italian honeycomb foundation due to different bee species. The medium honeycomb foundation room is slightly smaller for Chinese bees (Chinese bees), while the Italian honeycomb foundation room is slightly larger for Italian bees. (Italian bee) use, in beekeeping production, the corresponding nest foundation must be selected strictly according to the bee species.

To sum up, the nest foundation is artificially made for the bees to build the nest, and the use of the nest foundation enables the bees to build a neat and sturdy nest. There are two types of wax nest foundations and plastic nest foundations due to different production materials. , and because of the different suitable bee species, there are two kinds of honeycomb foundation and Italian honeycomb foundation. In the production of beekeeping, the wax nest foundation corresponding to the bee species should be used.

[Q] What is the function of the beeswax foundation sheet?

1. The nest foundation is the basis for bees to build the nest. The function is to allow the bees to build a neat and sturdy nest according to the nest foundation. The reason is that a neat nest is beneficial to beekeepers to manage the bee colony. It can prevent the spleen from falling due to the load. For example, the spleen tends to become very heavy when the honey is stored too much during the honey-flowing period.

2. The honeycomb foundation must be selected strictly according to the bee species. The reason is that the width of the middle honeycomb foundation and the Italian honeycomb foundation are different. The width of the standard honeycomb foundation is 4.61 mm, while the width of the standard Italian honeycomb foundation is 4.61 mm. It is 5.31 mm. If the bee is interested in the honeycomb foundation, it will bring unnecessary trouble to the beekeeping production. In addition, the beekeeping production uses the honeycomb foundation made of beeswax.
