Some species of bumblebees are still surviving in the nests, but the end of September<b>It's time to inspect the hive, clean it, and prepare it for winter.<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>Besides cleaning the ulcer, it is <b>time to reflect on what went well, what to do differently <\/b>for better performance and also for repairs after the season has ended.<\/p>\n<p>When all these tasks are listed like this, it's a lot. But don't be alarmed, these are tasks that are worth doing and will actually bring you <b>Cleaning the alcove and tidying up won't take even an hour.<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ); font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );\">Enjoy this work and <\/span><span style=\"color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family );\"><b>Don't forget to read in the nest<\/b><\/span><span style=\"color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ); font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );\">.
