Beekeeping in Africa: Colonization of a bee hive
This entry discusses different methods of bee hive colonization. It explains how a baited and installed hive can be self-colonized by a bee swarm. For cases where self-colonization is unsuccessful, it outlines three different methods to capture a swarm: two alternative ways of catching a swarm (with a bag/box or with paper and brush/quill) as well as the removal of wild bees from their nest.
This technology is part of a series on hive management derived from the FAO publication “Beekeeping in Africa”.
