FIGHTING BEE MOTHS.
A Warfare That Calls for Constant
Application and Exercise of
Considerable Patience.

One of the worst pests in the bee
yard is the bee moth, says L. w. Lightly,
in Country Gentleman. Neglected,
weak or queenless colonies fall an easy
prey to them and are speedily ruined.
The worst damage they do is generally
in hives where the bees died during
the winter and the combs are kept
where the moth can get at them. In
an incredibly short time all combs are
mass of black ruins. The common
black or brown German bee is gener-
ally troubled more by the moth than
the Italian. This might be accounted
for by the fact that the moth is very
active and can raise many broods per
season in a warm climate like Italy;
hence the Italian race has acquired,
through the long experience of many
generations, the ability to resist the
moth successfully. So if we wish to
get rid of the moths Expectations in
our colonies, we simply Italianize them
all and then allow nothing in the yard
but good, strong, healthy, normal col
onies, allowing none to remain queen
less any length of time. and we may
not see worm in comb all summer.
If we wish to keep combs in empty
hives where bees have persisted, we
must fumigate with sulphur about
every two weeks This is easily done
by closing the hives and blowing some
fumes of sulphur into them from the
bee-smoker. like to have a good mass
of glowing hardwood Goals in my
smoker and drop handful of sulphur
on them and fill every empty hive with
the fumes, though | prefer, when the
honey flow begins, simply to tier up
story on story on strong colonies, and
one colony will take care of many
combs and often store an astonishing
quantity of honey. Some believe that
anti-moth balls placed in the hive with
the empty comb will keep away the
MOTH but it was not a success with
me, and the bees did not take kindly
to the badsmelling comb when given
to them later. 1t repealed the bees bet
ter than the moth
