es hat wenig geregnet bei Dee Lusby in Arizona. Das wird langsam kritisch dort für die Bienen. Normalerweise regenet es im Frühjahr, was es heuer nicht tat und dann im Sommer der Monsun.
Es sind Temperaturen von über 43°C in Aussicht und Dee beschreibt dass sie Eiswasser mit zu den Bienen nehmen muss, um sich die Schultern, das Genick und den Kopf zu kühlen, um keinen Sonnenstich zu bekommen.

But at least got water for a short while, but sure need lots more to get new fall plants coming on...So praying for more rain. But with heat that high all week even under 5 stings can raise body heat 10+ degrees for heat strokes,....plus eating in hit of day, so it's drink plenty of ice water and have enough to put down back neck between shoulders to cool off fast if needing, plus down front of neck below chin to cool fast too, and on top of head also,...then with fast chill to stop heat dizziness fast relax and perhaps just stop work due to days high heat.

Ich hatte Kontakt zu einem Imker in Kuwait, der mir erzählte, dass dort im Sommer bei über 55°C alle Bienen eingehen. Er schafft es seine Bienen durch Kühlung über die heisse Epoche zu bekommen. Fast alle anderen Imker in Dubai kaufen immer wieder neue Stöcke in Ägypten, nachdem ihre durch die Hitze eingegangen sind. Der Honig muss dort derat teuer verkauft werden, dass sich diese Prozedur lohnt.
das schrieb er aus Kuwait:
the advantage our summer you will have natural treatment for your bees from Varroa because the temperature over 40 C from 7 AM to the evening for 2 + months you can find only few varroa inside the hives by luck
beekeepers importing every years from Egypt around 30.000 hives and only less than 100 can pass the summer
i connected you because i want to buy good foundation 4.9mm or 4.8 mm even i am planning to make my own foundation so i make sure 100% natural and free from chemical
