Frequently Asked Questions
What is hive management?
Hive management is the professional care of honeybee colonies throughout the season. It includes regular inspections, health monitoring, pest and disease prevention, seasonal adjustments, and responsible honey harvesting.
Our job is to keep the hive healthy and well-managed—so you can enjoy the benefits of beekeeping without needing hands-on experience.
Where are the beehives installed?
Hive placement is chosen carefully for each property. We evaluate sunlight, accessibility, flight paths, nearby activity, and overall safety before recommending a location.
The goal is to support strong colonies while keeping the placement comfortable and practical for people using the property.
Do I need an electric fence?
In areas where bears or other large wildlife are present, an electric fence is often strongly recommended to protect the hives.
During your site assessment, we evaluate wildlife risk and advise whether fencing is appropriate. When needed, we can provide a professionally designed electric bear fence solution.
When do you typically install new beehives?
We typically install new hives in April and May, which aligns with the start of the season in New Jersey.
Exact timing can vary depending on weather and site readiness.
How frequently will you be inspecting my hive?
Inspection frequency varies during the season and is adjusted based on hive condition, weather, and time of year.
Most hives are checked on a regular schedule, with additional visits as needed to keep the colony healthy and well-managed.
Do you provide treatments to keep the hives healthy?
When treatment is needed, we follow responsible, evidence-based beekeeping practices and use methods appropriate to the situation and season.
We prioritize colony health and long-term sustainability, and we can discuss our approach during your consultation.
What locations do you operate in?
We provide professional hive management services throughout Northern and Central New Jersey.
Service availability depends on location and property suitability, which we review during the consultation process.
