Venom collection is one of the most difficult part of bee keeping process.
The following factors make it difficult to successfully maintain bees; even beekeepers are unaware about the true value of bee venom.
Creating the venom electric device
Health and size of the colony populations
Number of bee hives
Nutrition of the hives
Risk of bees attacking any livestock around the
beehives

Apitoxin, or honeybee venom, is a bitter colorless liquid. The active portion of apitoxin is a complex mixture of proteins, which causes local inflammation and acts as an anticoagulant. The venom is produced in the abdomen of worker bees from a mixture of acidic and basic secretions. A honeybee can inject 0.1 mg of venom via its stinger. Bee venom has many commercial, medicinal and therapeutic applications. Among the growing list of uses, Bee Venom Therapy (BVT) has been used to treat arthritis, rheumatism, skin diseases, Lyme disease and chronic fatigue syndrome. Historically, collecting bee venom was a laborious and technical procedure, requiring skillful of handling of each individual bee. Recently, developments in electro-stimulation of worker bees have lead to a revolution in bee venom collection, allowing for large-scale commercial bee venom collection operations.
Caspian Apiaries continues to build on these advances with new techniques applied the electro-stimulation process developed by Mihaly Simics (Simics, 1999). The key to these new developments is the use Caspian Solution™, a proprietary mixture of pheromones and bee pollen. In combination with electro-stimulation techniques, Caspian Apiaries is able to maximize the yield of bee venom in three ways: First, the techniques allow Caspian Apiaries to collect bee venom from up to 500 hives a day. Second, the use of Caspian Solution™ has been shown to increase the per colony yield of venom. Finally, the use of Caspian Solution™ in these techniques has also been shown to shorten the recovery period needed before a colony’s venom can be harvested again. By stimulating bees to release Nasamov pheromone, Caspian Solution™ mitigates the effects of the alarm pheromone released as a byproduct of the electro-stimulation. The pacifying effect of Caspian Solution™ makes the environment around the collecting device safer, as well as allows for the rapid re-deployment of electro-stimulation equipment to other colonies. This presentation will include a description of the techniques, including donor hive selection, proper parameters for the electro-stimulation, a working time-frame for efficient and scalable collection and the hygienic, collection, transportation, desiccation and storage of bee venom.

VENOM DEVICE METERS
• A new method of venom collection has been developed. We have created a system to collect venom from 400-600 hives each day. This amount can be increased to a maximum of 1200 hives per day.
• The new method uses three Impulse generators and Collector frames, (each device contains 1 battery, 1 generator, and 10 collector frames. )
METHODOLOGY
These devices will be placed in an area of 100 strong beehives.
Each colony will experience between 30-40 minutes of electric shock before we move the device to the next set of 30 hives.
Within 2 hours, we have the ability to collect venom from 100 hives.
Within 10 hours of work, with two beekeepers, we are able to collect venom from 500 hives per day
These pollen patties are fed to the bees after venom collection has occurred. This enables the bees to rapidly produce venom (1 week)
We recommend having the bee operations close to each other (with in 5-15 km from each other) with source of pollen and honey, and a strong hive population.
This process prevents any residue or contamination to the wire and glass.
During this method of operating each collector will placed on top of the hives after the inner cover of the hives has been removed.
Before removing the venom collectors, a new group of hives is opened, and the battery is temporarily disconnected from each collector.
• . We operate the new set of 30 hives as quickly as possible. At this time, we also administer the Caspian solution of pheromones to the first group to reduce the alarm pheromones.
• After operating on 100 hives, the glass should be changed for the new operation. The glass sheet will be transported in a van, to a dark, room temperature area
Minimum size of bee population to collect venom is a single box population, but we recommend the double box population.
There is some
controversy regarding
the quality of the
venom collected at
night time, versus the
venom collection
during the day.
During the night,
there is more of the
bee population
available to collect
venom.
More difficult to operate
Temperature
(low temperature = less venom collection)
The disadvantages of night time collections :
🐝
🐝 🐝
In our practice, venom that has been
collected either day or night time will
produce the same amount venom and
color.
It is consistently an average of 1.6
gram for four double box beehives
in July and august.
We will repeat the collection process ten
days after the first round. During the
collections, when we change the
collecting t device to another group
hives we have only a 20 minute window.
LARVA PHERMONES CREAM TO PREVENT BEE STINGS DURING COLLECTION
This is over 90% effective in preventing bee stings
To prevent bee stings on hands during the device changing process
Larva phermones cream is used.
To reduce alarm phermones in bees, either liquid Caspian Solution or Pollen Patty with Phermones can be used. This can reduce bee aggression by 90 % and it becomes effective in less than 5 seconds.
Consumption of Caspian Solutions increase Nasanov
Phermones and Larva Phermones reduce alarm
phermones and aggressive behaviour in 2-5 seconds.
