Summary "Wintering Bees in Cellars" by Everett Franklin Phillips and Geo. S. Demuth is a scientific publication released in the early 20th century, specifically in 1918. This guide is aimed at beekeepers exploring the method of wintering bee colonies in cellars to ensure their survival during colder months. The book delves into the techniques, conditions, and considerations necessary for successfully wintering bees in this manner. The content of the book outlines critical factors for effective cellar wintering, including the ideal cellar conditions, suitable temperatures, ventilation needs, and appropriate feeding practices. The authors emphasize the importance of strong colonies, quality food stores, and protective measures against cold and wind for successful wintering. The book also provides practical steps for transferring bees into the cellar, maintaining the environment during winter, and ensuring colonies are prepared for the spring bloom. Additionally, various tests are suggested to help beekeepers assess the effectiveness of their wintering setups, aiming to optimize the health and vitality of their bees throughout the challenging winter months.
