Synopsis
The beekeeper should remember that swarming is simply reproduction. All the complex, integrated behaviour that occurs within a honey bee colony has evolved simply to improve its chance of successful reproduction. Most beekeeper’s primary interest is just one aspect of this behaviour, namely the collection of nectar and the storage of honey. In order to produce the maximum amount of harvestable honey, the beekeeper seeks to create large colonies but also to prevent them from achieving their natural destiny through swarming... This booklet is primarily about practical swarm control; what to do when you are out there at the hive-side faced with making a decision about management to try and control the swarming impulse.
