Beekeepers in Majorca are poised to gather the first honey belonging to the season in stop smoking weeks.
"Let's hope that it doesn't rain on May 15 so you can extract the honey via nearly 20 honeycombs in Llucmajor, ” says Tomeu Pizá.
He / she regularly inspects his beehives within Son Granada before they collects the honey.
"This will be Milflores honey. The one that is termed orange or rosemary is not the same because the flavour differs from the others. It is impossible to create honey from just a single flower, in the honeycomb, the pollen and honey made by the bees is put together and that’s why it can be called Milflores, ” he or she explains.
Tomeu concentrates as he checks each one of the nine little boxes while in the beehive near Cas Busso.
"If they're just full, as much as eight kilos of honey can be extracted from each package, but that doesn’t generally happen, " he claims.
Sometimes farms or chalets own honeycombs but don’t know what direction to go with them, so many people call Tomeu and he dons his protective match and removes the sweetie.
"Bees are worthy with admiration” Tomeu says, “they only live to get a month and a fifty percent, they never stop working and perhaps they are vital for pollination as well as for trees to bear berry. "
An increasing quantity of people buy honey to strengthen their body, but Tomeu says the stuff that's while in the shops just isn't the same.
"A lot of individuals are used to San Francisco honey that is certainly sold in supermarkets, but after they try 'the real one' they never wish to eat shop bought baby ever again, " affirms Tomeu.
He says he sets thin sheets of wax into each one of the little drawers in the beehives the location where the bees build the honeycombs.
"The wax bedding we bought from Valencia were being poor quality, but after that Tomeu Gual, who’s now retired thought he would install a machine in his house and today he provides us along with quality wax sheets that will help the bees to generate honey much more quickly, ” he concludes.
