  • A core will allow us to mitigate the momentum of a swarm to swarm, accepting one or two frames of creation and bees - a strategy is to create new clusters in nuclei 4 a 6 weeks before the first bloom from very strong swarms;
  • The core may serve to support the production of honey the strongest time of flowering, allowing strengthen hives with bees and creation, which should be made a 3 weeks before the start of flowering, and then, during the peak of the same, constantly;
  • Replacing the Queen in hives that swarmed or, for any reason, They lost their queen, during flowering, allowing you to save honey production this hive;
  • Strengthening of weak swarms, and providing them bees breeding;
  • Transferring a weak swarm of a honeycomb core allows for protecting it against predators, pests and diseases, as a faint swarm, to be unable to hold all frames of a beehive becomes more vulnerable to the moth infestations and predation by wasps, for ex.;
  • Who does not regret, already, not having a core hand to capture a wild swarm that found on your way?
  • The strong contingent bees a core to which the queen was removed can be used in the production of honey;
  • E sim, the cores are excellent to create new swarms!
