In beekeeping, autumn care is crucial for colonies to survive winter without losses and to develop strongly in spring. Failure to control the varroa mite can shorten the lifespan of winter bees, leading to colony losses. İlhan Evliyaoğlu, President of the Ardahan Beekeepers Association, warned beekeepers to inspect their hives before winter and take necessary precautions in time.

Evliyaoğlu emphasized that timely treatment against the varroa mite is essential for colonies to emerge strong from winter and develop rapidly in spring.
