Improve Honeybee Health: Hive Alive contains only ingredients shown in trials to improve bee gut health, improve honey production, increase colony population and help colonies stay strong for overwintering. The blend of Irish seaweed extracts, thymol, and lemongrass oil enhances immune function and can revitalize weak and underperforming bees
Boosts Colony Size: Hive Alive means more bees, more honey, and more success for professional beekeepers as well as hobbyists.
Apply in Fall and Spring: Feed in fall for a strong colony during overwintering and in spring for colony buildup. Just add 2.5 ml per liter of syrup (2 tsp per gallon of syrup) to feed 1 hive. (100 ml size includes a convenient dosage cap.) We recommend feeding a minimum of 1 gallon of activated syrup per hive. You can also spray as directed or add to fondant or patties for a boost of nutrition
Prevents Syrup from Fermenting: No need to toss unused or slowly used syrup. The ingredients in Hive Alive prevent fermentation to give you a longer feeding window and you can store any leftovers for future use without worrying about fermentation
Other Uses: Spray Hive Alive syrup on frames to encourage the bees to clean up old foundation. Add before introducing a new queen to mask scent.
