Description
The Langstroth Beehive is a premium-quality, flat-pack beekeeping kit made from first-grade, knot-free pinewood, designed for beekeepers looking for a durable and reliable hive for their bees. The hive includes everything you need to start or expand your apiary, featuring a 2 super, 1 brood configuration and built with 20mm wood thickness for strength and insulation.
Hive Components:
- Flat Roof with Metal Cover: The flat roof is designed to protect your hive from the elements, keeping the colony safe from rain and wind. The metal cover offers additional durability and ensures the roof can withstand weathering over time.
- Varroa Mesh Floor, Inspection Drawer, and Wooden Entrance Block: The Varroa mesh floor helps in controlling Varroa mites by allowing them to fall through and collect in the inspection drawer, making it easy to monitor mite levels. The wooden entrance block allows you to adjust the size of the hive entrance for better colony protection and airflow.
- 2 Flat Packed Supers: The 2 flat-packed supers provide ample space for honey storage. They are designed for easy assembly and are ideal for expanding the hive as the colony grows, allowing bees to store honey for harvest.
- Flat Packed Brood Box: The brood box is the heart of the hive, providing the space for the queen to lay eggs and for brood to develop. It is designed to fit 10 Langstroth frames, providing ample space for bee colony growth.
- Crown Board with Bee Escape Porter: The crown board separates the brood box from the supers and helps manage airflow in the hive. The bee escape porter is a convenient tool for allowing bees to move out of the supers during honey harvesting, making it easier to remove honey without disturbing the colony.
- Plastic Queen Excluder: The queen excluder ensures that the queen stays in the brood box while worker bees move freely between the supers. This ensures that the honey stores in the supers remain free from brood, optimizing honey production.
Additional Recommendation:
- External Treatment: We recommend that you externally treat your hive before use. This will help protect the wood from the elements, prevent damage, and extend the lifespan of your hive.
