Monitor and allow natural supercedure

4

If supercedure cells are observed and the colony appears healthy and exhibits no signs of queenlessness, the best approach is often to monitor and allow the natural supercedure process to proceed. This involves regular hive inspections to track the development of supercedure cells, emergence of the new queen, and subsequent queen mating and brood pattern establishment. Natural supercedure allows the bees to select a new queen best suited for the colony's needs. Beekeepers should avoid interfering with natural supercedure unless problems arise, such as queen mating failure.
