Remedies for a bee colony that has lost its king

  The queen bee is the core and most indispensable member of the bee colony. The loss of the queen has a great impact on the bee colony and may even be fatal. However, bee colonies generally do not lose their queen for no reason, and even if they lose their queen accidentally, they only need to proper handling can also save the bee colony. Let's take a look at the remedies for the loss of the bee colony's king!

Remedies
  Intervene a new queen: The most effective remedy for a bee colony that loses its queen is to reintroduce a new queen. However, when intervening with a new queen, you must find a way to get the bee colony to accept the queen bee, otherwise the worker bees of the kingless swarm may surround or bite the intervening queen bee to death.
  Intervene in the king's platform: After the bee colony loses its queen, you can insert a mature king's platform for the bee colony. Moreover, it is easier to intervene in the king's platform than to intervene in the queen bee. However, to intervene in the king's platform, you have to wait for the new queen to leave the house and go out. Only after mating with drones can they lay eggs and reproduce normally.
  Urgently create a throne: After the bee colony loses its queen, the larvae of worker bees within three days of age can be used to quickly create a throne. If there are no larvae of worker bees, some must be manually drawn from other bee colonies. However, a bee colony that is too weak may not be able to support the new queen to lay eggs even if it can quickly build a queen's platform.
