Methods include single-colony paper pack, two-colony pack and cellar wintering. Results show colonies of bees can be successfully wintered provided reasonable care is taken to supply the colonies with sufficient feed and protection. It is also necessary that the colonies have healthy queens to provide adequate population of young bees for winter storage.
