Here are some key benefits of using beehive numbers such as these;

Improved Organization: By assigning a unique number to each hive, beekeepers can maintain a well-organized apiary. This helps in quickly identifying and locating specific hives, especially when dealing with a large number of colonies.
Efficient Record-Keeping: Hive numbers facilitate accurate record-keeping by allowing beekeepers to track the performance, health, and productivity of individual hives over time. This can include data on honey production, brood patterns, queen performance, and any treatments applied to the colony.
Ease of Inventory Management: With hive numbers, beekeepers can keep a better inventory of their hives and equipment. This is particularly useful for tracking which hives may need maintenance or replacement parts.
Simplified Disease and Pest Control: If a particular hive is affected by pests or diseases, having it numbered makes it easier to document and follow up on treatment protocols and monitor recovery.
Enhanced Breeding Programs: For beekeepers involved in selective breeding or queen rearing, hive numbers are essential for keeping track of lineage and breeding outcomes.
Resource Allocation: Having multiple hives with unique identifiers allows beekeepers to share resources between colonies more effectively. For example, if one colony is weak, frames of brood or honey can be transferred from a stronger, identified colony to support it.
Research and Experimentation: For those conducting research or trying out new beekeeping techniques, hive numbers are crucial for setting up controlled experiments and accurately recording results.
Time Efficiency: When conducting inspections, having numbered hives can save time, as the beekeeper can quickly refer to records and know the history and current status of each colony without having to open it up first.
Legal Compliance: Beekeepers are required to register their hives and need to display numbers for identification purposes to comply with local regulations.
Durability and Practicality: The hive numbers from Lyson are made of plastic, which is durable and easy to use, ensuring they withstand the elements and remain legible over time.
