Guy Invents a Homemade Beehive to Save the Bees – Here are the Full Instructions!

Raw organic honey is the perfect substitute to replace processed sugars and sweeteners to effectively protect yourself from all their dangerous health side effects.

Previously, I explored how you could create your own source of raw organic honey in your home by starting up your own bee colony in your backyard.

I realize that the previous article focused exclusively on the issue of what beehive starter kits are currently available to you in the market.

Most packages ultimately depend on your own needs, the equipment you have, and how comfortable or experienced you are at taking care of your new beehive.

However, regardless of what package you decide to go for, removing and packaging your hive’s newly minted honeycombs can be taxing endeavor for anyone who has just started beekeeping.

So if this aspect of beekeeping is actually deterring you from starting your own bee colony, don’t panic!

Good news everyone! There is a simple hive alteration that can potentially make packaging honeycombs as easy as closing a jar.

Once you read this, you’ll be surprised that you did not think of it before!

DIY Beehive Jars

Although it’s extremely simple, you might lack the necessary tools to make this simple modification.

If that’s the case, make sure you visit your local hardware store to get the necessary advice and tools to get the job done. Or if you’re extremely lucky and have that one handy friend who can tackle any project, give them a call!

What you’re basically doing is replacing your hive’s lid with a lid that will allow you to accommodate some mason jars so your bees can simply start building honeycombs inside it.

Make sure your new lid is strong enough to withstand the entire weight of the number of full jar you intend to use.

After choosing the proper lid, make sure you cut it down to the perfect dimension so it can snuggly sit on top of your hive.
After that, trace how many mason jars you want to use as honeycomb containers.
To cut out the holes, I recommend using a power drill with the proper attachment.

Test out how snuggly your jars sit on the lid. Make sure they’re not too loose because you don’t want any unexpected visitors to get inside.
Replace the old lid with your new custom made lid and jars.
Give your bees enough time to fill out the jars.

Once they’re done filling the jar, the bees will seal off the jar. Once this is done, gently twist off the jar.
Fill it with honey.

You now have the perfect container for your own raw organic honey supply.

Additionally, it can also make the perfect gift for that friend who simply loves having honey around the house.

Once again, if having a beehive at home is too much work, I still recommend you actively participate in the global movement to learn how to help save the bees.
