This document provides guidance on inspecting honey bee hives and what to look for. It lists steps for a hive inspection such as giving smoke at the entrance, removing boxes gently, and holding frames so the sun illuminates the comb. During inspection, beekeepers should look for a good bee population, eggs, larvae, capped brood, honey and pollen. Issues to check for include signs of pests like varroa mites, small hive beetles, wax moths, and diseases like American and European foulbrood, Nosema, chalkbrood, and sacbrood. The goal is a minimal disturbance inspection to assess the hive's status and queen presence.
