Yard Visit Planner Guide

The Yard Visit Planner helps you organize efficient yard visits with task lists, priorities, and time estimates.


How to use it:

  • Enter your yards and the number of hives in each
  • Select the tasks you need to complete (inspection, mite count, treatment, feeding)
  • Set priority levels for each yard
  • Generate your visit plan with time estimates

  • Time estimates per hive:

  • Mite count: approximately 5 minutes
  • Full inspection: approximately 15-20 minutes
  • Quick check: approximately 5-7 minutes
  • Treatment application: approximately 3 minutes
  • Feeding: approximately 2 minutes

  • Pro tips:

  • Visit the most critical yards first while you are fresh
  • Bring all supplies before leaving — forgotten tools waste hours
  • A late check is always better than a skipped check
