Apis Biologix BIO-CONTROL is the first (and only) formulation of phytochemical, phenolic, amino acid, vitamin and phytohormone profiles naturally present in floral nectar that have been independently research verified to produce beneficial effects at the population, colony and individual level of analysis. The Apis Biologix bio control is designed to be added to your favorite sugar syrup or liquid feed supplement to fill in the nutritional gaps and provide a much more complete bee food. There is a corresponding bio-nutrition product for pollen supplements called bio-activator as well.
Beekeepers who have varroa well controlled, understand the value of young queens, and the critical timing associated with feeding interventions (avoiding nutritional stress events), will be able to add value to their beekeeping by incorporating these missing elements into their nutritional support program.
The intended use of Apis Biologix Bio-Nutrition is to provide a meaningful nutritional support program that can be employed during high stress situations for improved operational consistency and ‘Control’ over season to season variability. While the respective quantities of the bioactive elements are less in comparison to the macro elements of the honeybee diet, their impact on the growth and immune status of the colony is significant in the following applications:
- Building Population
- Winter Preparation
- Dearth
- Nutritionally Depleted Conditions
- Pollination Events
- Nutritional Support For Queen Rearing
- Mobilizing / Transport
