Nakalakip sa loob ng disenyo ng Zorue, ay isang tunay na paggalang sa likas na katangian ng mga buzzing na kaibigan na ito.
Isang lugar kung saan maaaring magpahinga ang mga bubuyog
Think about how easy it would be to get to the beehive area. While it is desirable that you can look at your bees every now and then, it is necessary to have an area for the bees that is secluded and they can live in normal conditions without any external disturbance. Find a secluded part of the house where there are no distractions as well as an unobstructed direct flight path that the bees will need in order to depart and come back from their surroundings.
Sikat ng araw at kanlungan
Bees are very good creatures who harness the energy from the sun. Such a positioning is the one that receives the morning sunlight but provides the blowing shade in the afternoon. The bees may begin their activities early in the day since the sunlight in the morning helps to heat the hive. The shade in the afternoon helps in preventing too much heat which may be harmful to bees and their honey.
Pinagmulan ng tubig sa malapit
Clean water is a key factor for successful beekeeping, especially with the honeybees. No matter what type of water source they prefer – a pond, cut or even a dripping faucet, make sure it’s not too far away from the bees. As an example, bees may need water to cool down, to feed their larvae, and to keep the hive clean. Even one or two hives that are placed just a couple of meters away from this water source will save your bees a lot of time when looking for water.
Masaganang pollen at nektar
A flowering and pollening land will definitely have your bees and sustain them as well. Pick an area that is surrounded by flowering or blooming plants and flowers during all seasons of the year that guarantee availability of pollen and nectar all the time. This will not only be beneficial to your bees but will also enhance the biodiversity of the landscape around your garden or region.
Proteksyon mula sa mga mandaragit at pests
Despite the Zorue beehives being constructed with strong and pest resistant materials, some external threats may still exisit. Select a position that is shielded from strong winds as this may prevent the bees from flying back into the hive and may even endanger the hive.
Sa pamamagitan ng pagpili ng isang pinakamainam na sulok na kung saan ay kalmado, tubig at pagkain ay nasa abot ng makakaya, at masaganang sikat ng araw ay magagamit, ikaw ay pagpoposisyon ng mga kolonya na itatayo at idinagdag sa iyong landscape habang nakikinabang ang natitirang bahagi ng mga sistema.
