How to Introduce a Queen Bee to a Hive - How to Introduce a Queen - Introduce a Mated Queen
How to Introduce a Queen to a hive is a really useful skill as it allows you to requeen a colony very quickly. If you introduce a mated queen to a hive with a virgin, the virgin will kill your mated queen.
How to introduce a queen bee to a hive is a common beekeeping question and there are many queen introduction methods and queen introduction techniques.
In this video I show you my method for the safe introduction of posted, mated queens by adding a queen to a beehive that has been made hopelessly queenless.
If you want to know how to requeen a colony or requeen a beehive you need to ensure they are hopelessly queenless before you add a mated queen bee into the beehive.
