To avoid spreading [[infectious diseases and parasites]] to a new nucleus, you should ensure that your colonies are healthy. This can be done with either a visual inspection or by sampling the bee hives for a laboratory test (for instance, every fourth year). [[Swarming ]] is a natural way for the bee colony to get rid of microbesdiseases and parasites. The swarms can be placed onto into a hive with new wax foundation once frames so that the colony has can completely renewed its comb structure and diminished thus diminish the infection pressure.
