With over 100 colour photographs and illustrations, Raising Resilient Bees is the comprehensive source for new and experienced beekeepers, offering a sustainable, natural and repeatable model of care for hive health and production.

Global pests and diseases present an unprecedented challenge for the modern honeybee. Hobby and commercial beekeepers alike continue to experience troubling rates of mortality for their colonies, with potentially deleterious consequences for the stability of our wider ecosystems and overall food security. It is time for a global focus on restoring the health of the shared apiary by naturally rearing genetically diverse and resilient lines of bees.

Raising Resilient Bees establishes these parameters and provides guidance for new and experienced beekeepers alike to translate these goals into real practice, thereby safeguarding the honeybee from the unknown threats of the future.

Authors Eric and Joy McEwen take two decades worth of beekeeping experience, experiments and professional production to deliver groundbreaking methods in queen-rearing, varroa mite management and Natural Nest hive design. Inside, you’ll discover:

  • Revived and adapted heritage Integrated Pest Management techniques
  • How to naturally rear queens and select for resilient, mite-resistant genetic lines without relying on swarming or grafting
  • Key tenets of apicentric beekeeping
  • Advice for establishing a flourishing and sustainable business with beekeeping at the centre
  • How to naturally rear bees with distinctive characteristics suitable to their locale

As in large-scale agriculture, the trend toward genetic homogenization is having long-term implications for bees’ capacity to withstand diverse environmental stressors. With expert advice, enthusiasm and easy-to-follow instructions, Raising Resilient Bees delivers important and timely information for every beekeeper to create a healthier future.

Needs improvement
This trimmer really looks nice and it comes with some great attachments but what I found is that if you're going to switch from the line attachment to the little plastic attachment you have to sit somewhere where you can lay the item down because you have to unscrew one to put on the other. There is no way to easily switch from line trimming to attachment trimming without using the device that unhooks the screw. In my opinion that is really a detriment to the beauty of the overall working of this item the weight of it is good, it cuts good it automatically feeds the line out the color is nice and the price is great but then you have the issue of changing the line back and forth if this was improved I think I would definitely give it five stars I'm sorry but improvements need to be made.

This can do some cutting
So glad I purchased this for cutting thin annoying vines and really tall weeds. The resin blades have held up to cutting 1/2" stemmed vines, weeds, and tall johnson grass out on the farm. Have not had to change out the first set and it comes with 3 sets of blades, plus an allen wrench for changing out the rotating head to a wire weedeater. Very happy overall. Too, it is not heavy at all, and noticed the battery lasts longer compared to using the B&D 20v line weedeater .

Very nice for the price
They’ve thought of everything for this. Easily switch heads. Easily change from trimming to edging. The line auto advances keeping you going when many others make you stop and make adjustments.

Faulty Trigger
This was the 3rd of 4 B & D Weed Trimmer's I have purchased in the past 4 months. My first B & D Weed Trimmer was purchased 3 years ago. The Trigger finally gave out. Every B & D Weed Trimmer has had a faulty trigger. They give out just past the 30 day return window - trying to get B & D to cover it on their warranty website is ridiculous! No one at Amazon knows anything either. So you either buy another or go to Ryobi...because you cant find any decent replacement blades for it either.
