Swarming is the way the colony reproduces.
Each hive can therefore be induced to swarm.
Controlling this mechanism is not totally possible, so beekeepers use certain techniques to ensure better production. But in the end, it is nature that decides what happens next, without informing the beekeeper!
The good news is that it is possible to tell immediately if a colony has swarmed. Because a swarm that leaves the hive has about 10 000 bees and weighs about 1kg.
This is easily detectable by our tool.
This measurement provides real time information for the beekeeper who can act according to the situation (for example by recovering the swarm).
