    Regional Beekeepers: Spring 2025 (333)
    2025/05/12
    In this Spring 2025 Regional Beekeepers episode, Jeff and Becky gather voices from across the country for a timely check-in on seasonal progress, survival rates, and challenges. Joining the table are Ang Roell (MA/FL), Bonnie Morse (CA), Duane Combs (AZ), and Jay Williams (TN), each offering a candid look at their spring buildup after a winter marked by extremes. Topics include overwintering survival—ranging from Duane’s 70% losses in Arizona to Jay’s impressive 96% survival in Tennessee—and how weather volatility and hive nutrition played pivotal roles. The conversation dives into spring splits, swarm control, queen longevity, and promising new varroa treatments like VarroxSan and RNA-based controls in development. Jay shares the results of using VarroxSan in his operation, while others discuss balancing cost and effectiveness with homemade oxalic pads and breeding practices. The episode also explores instrumental insemination, drone saturation strategies, and queen selection across climates. With thoughtful input from across the country, this roundtable offers insights that every beekeeper—regardless of location—can reflect on as spring rolls into full bloom.

    InsideTheHive.TV with Dr. Humberto Boncristiani (332)
    2025/05/05
    In this episode, Jeff and Becky welcome Dr. Humberto Boncristiani, bee biologist, educator, and founder of InsideTheHive.TV. Humberto shares his compelling journey from growing up with Africanized bees in Brazil to becoming a leading voice in honey bee health research and education. He discusses how his scientific work—ranging from virology to applied honey bee biology—supports commercial beekeepers and emerging technologies. With clients like Dalan Animal Health and ToBe, Humberto helps test products, troubleshoot colony problems, and translate observational knowledge into measurable outcomes. He also explains the challenges of bringing new products to market in the beekeeping industry, where trust and credibility matter more than flashy marketing. Beyond consulting, Humberto is known for his widely respected YouTube channel and free newsletter. He breaks down complex research into accessible language, helping beekeepers worldwide better understand the science behind their bees. His unique “Inside the Hive Academy” offers training in scientific thinking and evidence-based decision-making for those wanting to go deeper. Whether you’re a backyard beginner or managing thousands of colonies, Humberto’s message is clear: listen to your bees, challenge assumptions, and never stop learning.

  • [BONUS] Short - Dr. Dewey Caron - Swarming

    [BONUS] Short - Dr. Dewey Caron - Swarming
    2025/04/30

    In this Beekeeping Today Podcast Short, Dr. Dewey Caron returns with an “audio postcard” on one of spring’s biggest challenges: swarming. In less than 20 minutes, Dewey breaks down the science and management strategies of swarming across three communication levels—bee scientist to beekeeper, beekeeper to bees, and bee to bee.

    Dewey emphasizes that successful beekeeping often hinges on managing three core issues: overwintering, varroa control, and swarming. Drawing from scientific literature, field experience, and behavioral cues, he details proactive and reactive swarm management practices—from requeening and early supering to Demaree splits, Snelgrove boards, and shook swarms.

    He also explores the signals bees send each other—pheromones, body heat, piping calls, and buzz running—that guide the colony toward swarming and relocation. If you’re looking to better understand how to read your bees this spring and respond before the swarm takes flight, this episode is packed with insights you can put to work in your own apiary.
