Abstract
The study was conducted at the researcher apiary, situated 4Km south west Haweejah city-Kirkuk Governorate, On hybrid honey bee colonies, Apis mellifera L. in kept in Local Langstroth hives model. The result showed that highest mean of bee population was 3.75 bee frame in 1HPTT comparing with lowest mean of 3HPTT which was 3.02 bee frame, while CT was significant superiority in sealed brood worker with highest mean which was 75.59 bee frame on 3HPTT which had Lowest mean of 48.59 sq. inch, statistical analysis for pollen character showed that there were no differences between treatments, and highest mean was 32 sq. inch for 1HPTT comparing with 18.92 sq. inch for the 2HPTT which had the lowest mean, also statistical analysis for unsealed honey character, that 3HPTT differs significantly with mean of 185.9 sq. inch, comparing with highest mean 291 sq. inch for 2HPTT, which for sealed honey statistical analysis showed that 1HPTT differs. Significantly which recorded lower mean of 425.4 sq. inch comparing with highest mean 514.5 sq inch which being recorded in CT.  Control treatment = CT One hour pollen trap treatment = 1HPTT. Two hour pollen trap treatment = 2HPTT. Three hour pollen trap treatment = 3HPTT.
