Mann Lake FD203 Bee-Pro Pollen Substitute Canister, 1-Pound

Description

Bee-Pro pollen substitute contains the best nutrients available for the
production of larval food. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein.
Different protein sources contain different amino acid levels; and it’s for
this reason that a mixture of protein sources should be included in a pollen
substitute. A correct amino acid balance is the key to efficient utilization
of protein. Protein quality is determined by its level of essential amino
acids. A shortage of any one essential amino acid makes overall protein
utilization by the bee less efficient. Can be fed in dry form in a feeder box
placed in the yard or made into patties by mixing with high fructose corn
syrup or sugar syrup and placed in the hive. Free of all contaminants. Natural
pollens may contain pesticide residue and disease carrying bacteria
(foulbrood). Can be used for building colonies in late winter or early spring,
to prepare for pollination and to maintain or increase brood production prior
to and after honey flow. Gives your bees the best nutrients available for the
production of larval food. High protein pollen substitute which supplies the
lipids, minerals, and B-complex vitamins honeybees need to produce larval
food. Specially formulated for the commercial beekeeper who is feeding syrup
as the source of carbohydrates in the bee’s diet. Comes in 1-pound canister.
