3. How to use the bee sweep

• When the bee colony is unpacked and inspected, the bees on the comb can be brushed off by bees, so as to conduct a comprehensive management of the bee colony.
• After the honeycomb is taken out when the bee colony is cutting honey, many bees will be attached to the comb, which can be gently brushed off with a bee sweeper.
• If the queen bee is surrounded by the bee colony, you can use the bee sweeper to gently sweep away the bee colony to rescue the surrounded queen bee.
