500ml of Hive Alive activates 200 litres of syrup.
Benefits of Hive Alive
HiveAlive is a simple, safe nutritional supplement that is added to sugar syrup. It is developed and manufactured in Ireland following 6 years of internationally validated research.
HiveAlive uses only natural active ingredients scientifically selected for maximum efficacy. The key ingredient is OceaShield, a blend of bioactive seaweed extracts that are internationally recognised to have beneficial properties for both animals and humans. OceaShield™ provides a rich and nourishing food source that promotes bees’ intestinal well-being.
International trials have shown that routinely feeding HiveAlive produces significantly stronger colonies when compared to a control (syrup without HiveAlive). Recent trials performed by the Hellenic Institute of Apiculture, Greece and Veto-Pharma, France consistently show increased population, brood and honey production. Up to 89% population increase was observed.
Other uses for HiveAlive
Spray or drench
Spray/drench 300ml (10 fl. oz.) of activated sugar syrup at a max concentration of 1:100, once a week for 3 weeks to cover full breeding cycle.
To enhance protein patties
HiveAlive™ can be added to protein patties at a concentration of up to 10ml per kg patty (1 tsp per lb of
patty).
For a cleaner, happier hive
Spray entire brood box before and after winter with activated syrup. Ideally once a week over 3 weeks to cover a full breeding cycle.
To revitalise old foundation
If bees are slow to draw out old foundation, brush on activated syrup to increase attractiveness.
To store leftover syrup
Add HiveAlive™ to prevent syrup from going off. This also gives the beekeeper a longer feeding window in autumn.
