<div style="text-align:left;"><span style="font-family:georgia, times, serif;"><span style="font-size:16px;">They've made it this far. The signs of Spring have started and many hives are brooding up. The most important thing to do now is to be sure they do not run out of food. We had a long, prolonged warm Autumn, which may have caused colonies to use up some of their Winter stores. When weather permits, open your hives:<br>
1) "Center" the cluster- if the bees have worked themselves over to 1 side or a corner, take frames of honey from the opposite side and push the cluster frames to the middle, placing the honey frames closer.<br>
2) Now is a good time to treat for mites, when the numbers are low<br>

4) Especially for strong hives that you want to split in the Spring, start feeding pollen patties within the next several weeks, either commercial or homemade (see above link)<br>
