Services

At Bowral Bees we offer the following services:

Nuc Hive / Bee Hive Sales

5 frame nuc bee hives with recently mated queens are available from mid October each year.

Delivery and/or installing the bees into your hive is available for most areas in the Southern Highlands.

Please note we often have a wait list each year for nuc hives. So if you’re planning on getting bees (for example a Flow Hive set up) please contact me ASAP. Nuc hives are available from mid October each year through to February.

There’s a $50 deposit to hold a place on the list and the balance due on collection or installation.

Bee Keeping Mentoring & Inspections

If you’re just getting started in bee keeping I can help with mentoring sessions and bee hive inspections.

A bee hive inspection involves a thorough check through the brood box and supers to ensure your bees are healthy and pest & disease free. Varroa mite checks and treatment will be done as required.

Please note you are required by the DPI to register as a bee keeper and must complete a minimum of 4 inspections per year. You can register with the DPI here: https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/animals-and-livestock/bees/beekeeper-registration
