This looks like a great idea. I'll be sure to trial this when I finally start my journey into stingless beekeeping. 🐝
Congrats! That's great result Nick!
I have just started stinglessbee keeping. Once my supers are well established, I will try incorporating series honey supers. This idea looks great. Thanks for sharing
Michael Nkanda no worries hope it helps
You certainly has a noble heart on ensuring no bees are hurt...I'm on a journey to find out more n you video certainly gav me a fine tutorial to improve their nest.....Will be embarking to start a colony in an orchard soon..2x thumbs up 👌
I’m so excited! I’m deathly allergic to honey bees but I’ve always wanted a bee hive, I’ve only just found out that you can get stingless bee hives to keep at home! This will be my new research project hopefully leading to my very own hive!!!
Loz King yay for stingless bees! Get ready to get addicted though.
I was looking at having a be hive in my backyard and was initially put off from stingless native bees just from how destructive harvesting seemed. This is a great idea, going to follow up with your course mate. Thanks for sharing this.
so lovely to watch. thanks for sharing
Great work Nick! This is an easy conversion for existing OATHs. Great innovation that uses natural behaviours. Well done 👍
Yeah!! I’m hopeful this will help change things for honey harvest! Easy to make and fit to top view hive. :)
I love your videos! Very informative and sharing the love for the bees! CQ Native Bees
CQ Native Bees thanks for your nice comments. :)
Having just constructed and established no less than 5 hives on the "Powell Hive Box" design (slightly modified) - NOW you come up with this great idea! Appears it is back to the shed to construct some new honey supers on this new design AND work out how to incorporate my easy open lid modification! But all is not lost. I can easily convert the old supers into brood sections for new hives or splits.
I’m sorry ☺️. But the good thing is it’s easy to modify a Powell hive to take these. Are your hives all filled up with Bees yet?
I started with 2 rescue hives split to 4 boxes. Very few bees were lost - the trick there is to do the collection early on a cold morning. They are very active after 4 weeks. I will have the new supers ready in time to swap on when it is time to try for some honey in due course. I don't want to disturb them at this point.
Of the 5 mentioned, one is an eduction out in the country that I am told appears to be on-track after a slow start.
I do have a 6th - in Cairns - where we are trying to get (probably) Tetragonula Clypearis to establish. They are reluctant! Might have to try some tricks.... or even mod the box (smaller inside?) - might have to go back to Cairns to supervise....
Just today I learned of a 4 year old girl, in Palo Alto, CA whom found 2 colonies of stingless bees originating from Brazil. Their story of survival is truly fascinating!
Stingless bees are so cool! Are yours the same type that build in an upward spiral, when left in the wild?
The honey pots are fascinating! Their irregular shapes make me want to see many, many frames, to try to see a pattern in the randomness of their shapes, sizes, and arrangements.
Wow. Love you! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Awesome video Nick, I have recently bought my first hive. I would definitely be interested in adding series supers to my hive in the future. Much easier than the conventional pot super. Great Work !!
No worries. I hope you have many big honey harvests. I think compressor sales might go up. 😂
youre a wonderful human being. i couldnt care less if any bees died, but hearing how much you cared about them, made me rethink how i feel about things. cheers!
You're my hero. Stingless bees are awesome!
Awe. 🙏🏼 Thank you!!
its amazing, nick.. great idea. love to see this cause I'm gong to start mine too
thanks bro.. i only have one stingless bee hive and using a vacuum suction machine.
Nice video, awesome idea. I will try this with my hive once it is fully established
Yeah give it a go!! Full hive is very important.
Really good video m8. Extraordinary content and thanks for putting in the time to educate us. Cheers mate
This is so impressive and new knowledge for new perspectives
Nice harvest!
I like this Idea. Make complate my superhoney plan...Thanks buddy..
No worries.
thank you for sharing
Thanks for sharing,sir
Saya penggiat lebah dari Indonesia. Saya sangat senang melihat cara menggunakan kotak lebah seperti ini. Dan saya sangat terinspirasi. Terimakasih
It is the most prized type of bees from where I live. It's honey has many medicinal properties and also its wax can cure many chronic illnesses just by burning and inhaling it's fumes
Brilliant idea, I'm gonna make some tomorrow heheh
Thank you for u video ...
Good joob....& I Like it...succes always Mr👍👍👍
Would like to know what struts you were thinking of using? How often do you harvest a hive for honey?
How many supers did you take out at a time from their hives? And what percentage do you think you returned when finished harvesting
Nice video
How many series supers can you stack? I would assume they would only fill to a certain amount of space?
great idea.
What you gonna do to honey super after extracting
Is the two honeys ok together?
Nice video.. like it. I have some colony stingless bee to..
Perfect.... 👍👍👍
could you simply flip the frames over when attaching them to the hive? then the bees would be putting the honey pots in the attached boards.
Can you please show me how to make box and frame like yours? Thanks
Menarik.Terimakasih informasinya pak.
what spesies sir? Itama?
Nice vídeo
Thanks. I am pushing my filipina to raise stingless bees on our little orchard. I hope that our native bees are of similar nature in their construction and this series super is a wonderful thing that you have found.
I notice that in the Philippines, the honey is pasteurised. Some hobby bee keepers here in the USA, use a solar oven to separate wax, waist and honey. The box reaches 120*F and sort of pasteurises the honey as the wax is melted and honey and wax are filtered through paper towel. Would a similar thing work with the propolis honey pots? I mean, spin the honey in a hive gallon bucket DIY honey extractor, run the lot through the solar separator and bottle the remaining honey?
Sorry for the long comment. It is my yankee ADD affliction. I bird dog every thing.
Like the rubber spiky tool you used to stab the super
I love native bees
Nice content bro
When the honey spilled I lifted the phone over my head... then I cried...
Mate! I couldn't agree more!
They don't deserve to die for us. I was thinking that budding to propagate new hives instead of splitting....
This seems is the best way to go and not open them at all not for splitting and not for honey.
This might just be the answer
Hai friend, greeting from beekeeping Indonesia
ahmad zaen009 hello and welcome!!
Candied honey?
like sharing new friends
One question do this kind of bee live in all Australia or only in tropical regions like Queensland? Honeybees start to fly around 10°12° Celsius. What is the lowest temperature for stingless bees to get out and collecting Nektar. Can they survive in rigions with temperature +5°Celsius at night +15 ° at day in winter but we have also warmer or colder weather in winter but never frost. Why all this questions? I find them cute i like to have some hive in my beeyard in Southitaly Tropea. .
Hello and thanks for stopping by. These bees fly at 18 degrees centigrade. At this temperature they can happily collect nectar. Tetragonula carbonaria can live down to Sydney on the east coast but are happier in warmer climates. Our winters average at about 12-21 degrees with June seeing 10 degrees. If the hive has a good amount of pollen and nectar they sit inside the hive most of winter only coming out during the hottest part of the day for a few hours. I hope this helps you. 👍🏻
Once you’ve finalized your design, this will not only allow people to harvest the honey with minimal bee losses, but it will also make the keeping of stingless bees more attractive to those who don’t have colonies yet
Thanks for writing that nice comment. Do you think many people don’t want to keep natives because honey is hard to get?
Absolutely - I have hives left with friends who won’t even attempt to harvest unless I am present despite teaching them. I also wonder if this will allow people to harvest more regularly as the pot damage is reduced and would make it easier for the colony to re-use pots and recycle excess honey. I also imagine this reduces risk of flooding brood and drowning bees where a larger super is used and harvested.
@@samhiggins3840 can the supers just be put back on hive without washing out all honey as all that residual honey may entice pests or is that only if split?
You should look at brazilian bee box, called model inpa (modelo inpa). Is very symilar, your model box.
Sir, can freezing abandoned hive kill pests that may be inside the hive? How do we re-use abandoned hive?
gwazenlo chung melt wax and place in the sun for ants to clear out then re-use. If it smells use a blow torch to clean
Can you make creamed honey. From native bee honey ?
Legal essa melgueira de uma camada só.
G'day from the Philippines.
There are native bees here but I have no idea what type.
I'll follow your instructions and build a hive.
I have no no access to an existing hive but have seen them swarming.
When I build the hive and place it in the garden is it likely the bees will colonise it or am I just dreaming.
Nick, one things I have not come across Is specific uses of stingless bee honey in Australia. Please!
Eat it
Very nice design. Do you have link on how to make this design? Thanks
what is the dimensions of your colony sir
may I know what species is this?

What is the cost of stainless bees Honey
I like that this video is 9:11 long.
how long did it take the bees to make that much honey?
Probably 1 year

Hello my friend. I am from Brazil. we work with native bees. where did you buy this 30-point plastic frame punch - Pin Board?
Hi
👏👏👏👏
Wow those are so tiny! Can we get them in the US to help? Thanks for the cool video
In South America there are a lot but I’m unsure how high up people have taken them. They probably wouldn’t survive in the snow. You do however have a tonne of solitary Bees that are masters of pollinators. Some much better than apis. I think you might be able to find out if anyone has them in the US. ?
So cool seeing them thank you for replying. Could not find anyone online that has them in the US. Looks like I’ll have to bring some in from South America and if I put them in Miami they will probably definetly grow on their own. Can I just get a queen and some attendants and start several colonies? . You are so lucky to help save these guys these tiny bees are so amazing
Generally what people buy is a whole colony of these. Queen , brood (eggs) and workers. There are only a few types of stingless Bees that will start without eggs on their own accord. So look for a colony with new eggs. This is a clear indication that there is a queen present within the colony. 👍🏻
Have these ever been imported to the states? I live in florida and want some.
Jesse Davis not yet. Have you got stingless bees?
do you sell the beehives? I have a colony I need to buy a hive (or 2) for. I would build them but I'm really busy atm
Hello Cyrus!!. Contact me through Australiannativebee.com and I’ll see what I can help you with. 😀🙏🏻
Where do you get the plastic pin pricker from?
I got it custom designed. Do you think I should sell them?
@@australiannativebee3662 yeah definitely. I'd buy one!
I might have to look at that as an option.
I reckon if you have access to a 3D printer you could knock these out pretty easy.
@@australiannativebee3662 yes and prob even series supers will sell as a kit, at least then u can add instructions in pack to inform harvester the way to do it to cause less bee harm
❤️ 🐝🐝🐝🐝🖤🖤🖤✌️
brazilian stingless bees is the best into world
Sir Can I feed sugar syrup to this kind of bees... If yes , what is the way to feed sugar syrup.. pls reply
You certainly can!! A feeder with a float in the top is the most common and used design. You can also make gravity feeders or simply soak a sponge in syrup.
Thank you sir ... Can you make a video for how to feed sugar syrup and it's systems for feeding in side of the hive...
It most certainly is in the list of videos to do. 👍🏻
Oh ... Thank u. Man u r so great....
👍
My name is Naiman Alphayo from Arusha Tanzania I'm interested with your modern stingless bees hives me I keeping in local hives and I dont have the international market of honey and I don't know how can I finde it can you you help me .
Also a more important question, any OATH compatible version for sale?
Thanks for dropping by. I have just been making these on my own for my own hives but they are easy to make for any floor plan of hive. Hope this helps.
hope you are ok
I have a 1 month old colony , when can I supers to them ?
Once your hive is completely full to the top and tightly packed. Fit them.
Thanks a lot , your videos are very helpful ..
I have this another colony of trigona biroi with no queen and queen cell , I was hoping that they'll manage to make a queen cell .
If they have fresh brood they can. If no freshly laid brood in colony they can’t. Unless there is a queen cell.
I am not quite sure which of them are the fresh brood , they thickened the propolis cover of some and just leave the yellow ones .
I saw your micro colonies , I think I have the same brood .
Wow! Gr8 work m8! Wouldn’t mind trying here but I don’t believe the US has native Stingless Bees...
Towards the south you do but you do have solitary Bees.!!!

The ancient Maya considered the stingless melliponine bee (Apidae melliponinae), native to the tropical forests of the Yucatan peninsula, to be a link to the spirit world, given to them by the bee god, Ah Muzen Cab. Harvested from log nests, the stingless bee honey was used as a sweetener, an antibiotic, and to make the fermented honey drink called balché, a ritual alcoholic beverage similar to the European mead. Out of over 500 species of tropical stingless bees, the Maya have always favored Melipona beecheii, which they call kolil kab, meaning "royal lady."' in www.mexconnect.com/articles/3286-honey-a-sweet-maya-legacy from google(maya civilization honey)result 1

Hello my name is Paul Abeli Mdinka man from Tanzania 🇹🇿 I want to get more information from you about stingless bees your a good mast iwant to be like you my dear friend pls show me the way
That's not the right way to harvest stingless bee honey. In Malaysia, we use pump to suck it out. Very efficient and save your time and energy. Plus, the bee can reuse the honey sack to refill honey again. The pump here only cost about USD25.
Hi how can you help me to know your way is GOP
Good
Indonesia people call that kelulut bee
