A “Healthy Bee Day” will be held at Awbridge Village Hall SO51 0HG on Saturday, 29th June from 9 am to 5 pm.
It is kindly sponsored by Bee Diseases Insurance and led by our seasonal bee inspector. | ![]() |
Only two such events are held in each NBU region each year so we are fortunate in having one in our county.
Programme:
- Apiary hygiene and disease control
- Disease inspections
- Disease comb recognition
- European and American Foulbrood and other brood disorders
- Small Hive Beetle and Tropilaelaps monitoring
- Varroa – Integrated Pest Management
- Asian Hornet update
The charge for the day is £10 per person. Light refreshments will be provided.
To book your place please email rdbkachair@gmail.com
You will need to bring:
- A packed lunch (teas and coffees will be provided)
- Your freshly cleaned bee suit or jacket and veil, boots and gloves. Leather gloves will not be permitted.
