Double your honey crop and stop your bees swarming

🎥 About This Video This is the Demaree split I use when I want to keep a big colony together, keep the bees working, and stop them tipping over into swarm mode. I show the standard Demaree setup, then how I reverse it back down by putting the top brood box on the bottom. That nadirs the brood box and encourages the bees to push the honey back up into the supers where you actually want it. 🧠 What You Will Learn You will see how a Demaree split can help relieve swarm pressure without breaking the colony down into smaller units. I explain why the method works, why keeping the flying force together matters, and how reversing the stack later can help tidy the brood nest and move honey back up above the queen excluder. 🍯 Why this can make a bigger honey crop A strong colony can make a massive crop if you manage the pressure at the right time. The problem is that the same strength that fills your supers can also push the bees towards swarming. The Demaree gives the colony space, keeps the queen laying, moves brood away from the queen, and keeps the workforce together. Done at the right point, it is one of the best swarm-control methods for honey production. 🎓 14 Day Beekeeper If you want the full step-by-step method for swarm control, queen cells, splits, honey production and seasonal colony management, come and join 14 Day Beekeeper. https://www.blackmountainhoney.co.uk/... 💬 HiveQ If you are looking at queen cells, thinking about a Demaree, or wondering whether your colony is about to swarm, HiveQ is where you can ask for help before you make the wrong move.
