Abstract
A trap for bee parasites consists of an area of the hive prepared to receive the brood comb having at least a part of its surface bearing an attractant for the parasites. A honeycomb structure is introduced into drone cells in a beehive, the structure being coated with a attractant on at least one face. When the cells have been operculated they are removed, thus eliminating the parasites.
Description
"METHODE ET DISPOSITIF DE PIEGEAGE DE PARASITES DES ABEILLES, ETSUBSTANCES DESTINEES A CETTE METHODE ET A CE DISPOSITIF"
Méthode et dispositif de piégeage de parasites des abeilles, et substances destinées à cette méthode et à ce dispositif.
La présente invention a pour objet une méthode et un dispositif de piégeage de parasites des abeilles ainsi que des substances destinées à la mise en oeuvre de cette méthode et de ce dispositif.
L'invention procure ainsi un moyen efficace de lutte contre des parasites des abeilles, tels que notamment l'acarien Varroa Jacobsoni. La Varroase des abeilles est une maladie parasitaire bien connue
et décrite en détails dans la publication intitulée "La Varroase
des Abeilles, directives pour la pratique" éditée par le Ministère
de l'Agriculture, Service de l'Information, avenue du Boulevard, 21
à 1000 Bruxelles (éd. mars 1985), dont le contenu est repris ici
par référence.
Il a, à présent, été trouvé une nouvelle méthode de piégeage de parasites des abeilles qui donne des résultats largement supérieurs
à ceux décrits dans la publication dont référence ci-dessus.
Il a ainsi été constaté que certaines substances dont l'attraction pour les parasites acariens était connue en soi, et qui avaient d'ailleurs été proposées comme moyen de piégeage de ces acariens
par certains chercheurs, ont une efficacité tout-à-fait surprenante lorsque appliquées directement sur une portion intérieure de la ruche.
Il a en outre été constaté de manière inattendue que cette efficacité surprenante est encore grandement amplifiée par un effet synergéti-que lorsqu'associée à l'effet résultant de la préférence marquée
par Varroa Jacobsoni pour le couvain de faux-bourdons.
Un objet de l'invention est, dès lors, de procurer un piège pour parasites des abeilles tel que défini aux revendications 1 à 6 qui suivent la présente description.
Un autre objet de l'invention est encore de fournir une méthode
de piégeage de parasites des abeilles et de lutte contre certains
de ces parasites telle que définie aux revendications 7 à 9 qui suivent la présente description.
Un autre objet de l'invention est enfin de procurer des substances pouvant être mises en oeuvre dans les méthodes et les dispositifs selon l'invention, lesquelles substances répondent aux caractéristiques définies aux revendications 10 à 15 qui suivent la présente description.
L'invention est illustrée par la description d'expériences comparatives entre la quantité de parasites trouvés dans des portions
de ruche non traitées selon l'invention et des portions traitées selon l'invention.
Une reine a été amenée à déposer sa ponte sur des cadres "femelles" non traités, sur des cadres "males" non traités et sur des cadres "males" "sprayés" a l'aide d'une composition à base de glucose, de substitut de pollen, d'huile essentielle de thym, de composantes cellulosiques de feuilles et de mélasse en quantités approximativement équivalentes.
Il a été constaté que la capture de Varroas dans les cadres "males" traités était environ 7 à 10 fois supérieure par rapport au témoin de cadres "femelles" non traités et d'environ 25% supérieure par rapport aux cadres "males" non traités.
Il est bien entendu que l'invention n'est en rien limitée par les modes d'exécution particuliers décrits dans le présent mémoire et que de nombreuses modifications apparaîtront à l'homme de métier sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, tel que décrit aux revendications suivantes. Il va ainsi de soi que l'invention n'est aucunement limitée à l'utilisation de certaines substances spécifiques attractives pour les parasites.
Toute substance connue actuellement ou pouvant être découverte ultérieurement et présentant de telles propriétés rentre bien entendu dans le cadre de la présente invention.
REVENDICATIONS
- Piège pour parasites des abeilles, caractérisé en ce qu'il consiste en une portion de ruche préparée pour recevoir du couvain, dont au moins une partie de la surface est pourvue d'une substance attractive pour lesdits parasites.
"METHOD AND DEVICE FOR TRAPPING BEE PARASITES, AND SUBSTANCES FOR THIS METHOD AND THE DEVICE"
Method and device for trapping bee parasites, and substances intended for this method and this device.
The present invention relates to a method and a device for trapping bee parasites as well as substances intended for the implementation of this method and of this device.
The invention thus provides an effective means of combating parasites of bees, such as in particular the mite Varroa Jacobsoni. Bee Varroasis is a well-known parasitic disease
and described in detail in the publication entitled "La Varroase
bees, guidelines for practice "published by the Ministry
of Agriculture, Information Service, avenue du Boulevard, 21
at 1000 Brussels (ed. March 1985), the content of which is reproduced here
by reference.
A new method of trapping bee parasites has now been found which gives far superior results.
to those described in the publication referred to above.
It was thus noted that certain substances whose attraction for the mites parasites was known per se, and which had moreover been proposed like means of trapping of these mites
by some researchers, have quite surprising effectiveness when applied directly to an inner portion of the hive.
It has also been unexpectedly found that this surprising effectiveness is still greatly amplified by a synergetic effect when combined with the effect resulting from the marked preference.
by Varroa Jacobsoni for the drone brood.
It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a trap for bee parasites as defined in claims 1 to 6 which follow this description.
Yet another object of the invention is to provide a method
to trap bee parasites and control certain
of these parasites as defined in claims 7 to 9 which follow the present description.
Another object of the invention is finally to provide substances which can be used in the methods and devices according to the invention, which substances correspond to the characteristics defined in claims 10 to 15 which follow the present description.
The invention is illustrated by the description of comparative experiments between the quantity of parasites found in portions
hive not treated according to the invention and portions treated according to the invention.
A queen has been brought to lay her eggs on untreated "female" frames, on untreated "male" frames and on "sprayed" "male" frames using a composition based on glucose, substitute for pollen, thyme essential oil, cellulosic components of leaves and molasses in approximately equivalent quantities.
It was found that the catch of Varroas in the treated “male” frames was approximately 7 to 10 times greater compared to the control of untreated “female” frames and about 25% greater compared to the untreated “male” frames. .
It is understood that the invention is in no way limited by the particular embodiments described in this specification and that many modifications will appear to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention, as described to the following claims. It goes without saying that the invention is in no way limited to the use of certain specific substances which are attractive to parasites.
Any substance currently known or which can be discovered later and having such properties is of course within the scope of the present invention.
CLAIMS
- Trap for bee parasites, characterized in that it consists of a portion of beehive prepared to receive brood, at least part of the surface of which is provided with a substance which is attractive to said parasites.
