If you’ve never seen wax moth damage before…just know it's not my favorite part of this job 😅

Wax moths are opportunistic pests that usually target weak or struggling hives. Instead of attacking the bees directly, they invade the comb itself, tunneling through wax, pollen, brood, and leftover honey stores.
As the larvae spread, they leave behind thick webbing and damage that can quickly make a hive unlivable. Colonies may abandon the hive entirely and swarm off looking for a new home.

If you’ve noticed wax moths in your hives and need help figuring out the next steps, feel free to reach out. And if you find a colony that has swarmed into your home, shed, or property, we also offer humane bee removals across NWA! 🐝

Save this post for your next plant shopping trip, OR send it to your partner who handles the yard work 😂

Royal Candles attract bees with their tall purple blooms, while Mountain Mint is one of the biggest pollinator magnets you can plant. Salvia blooms for a long season and is constantly buzzing with bees, and Tickseed is a super-easy, beginner-friendly perennial.

Yarrow is hardy and drought-tolerant once established. David Austin English Roses bring both fragrance and pollinator support, and Amazing Daisies add long-lasting blooms through summer. We also had to include “Meant to BEE Royal Raspberry” just for the name alone, hah!🐝

Keep an eye out for the pollinator signs throughout the Westwood nursery too! Yellow signs=great for bees. Purple signs=butterfly-friendly.

Such a highlight getting to release Swarm Season 2026 at Orthodox Farmhouse Brewery, a smooth honey brown ale made with 100% Arkansas honey from C's Bees!

Thank you to everyone who came out to the Bees & Beer Festival on Sunday, supporting local, and helping make the event such a success!

Have you tried Swarm Season yet? Can’t wait to hear what you think!

As we wrap up another nuc season, I want to extend a sincere thank you to everyone who purchased bees from C’s Bees this year. Your support means a great deal to our family and helps us continue growing our beekeeping operation here in Northwest Arkansas.

Whether you’re a first-time beekeeper starting your journey or a seasoned beekeeper expanding your apiary, we’re grateful that you trusted us with your bees. We take pride in raising strong, healthy colonies and love seeing them thrive in their new homes.

Thank you for supporting local agriculture, local honeybees, and a small family-owned business. We appreciate each and every one of you and look forward to helping you succeed throughout the season. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have questions or need assistance with your colonies. We can’t wait to see what your bees accomplish this year!
