Designed for efficient hive management

The grid arrangement allows worker bees to move freely while the queen remains in the brood chamber where brood rearing happens. This setup helps maintain brood organization and can streamline routine inspections without disrupting the colony.

• Promotes brood confinement without restricting ventilation.
• Supports steadier brood patterns during honey production.
• Minimizes accidental queen disturbances during checks.

Size, compatibility, and practical use

Each excluder measures 51 x 41 cm, sized to fit HiveSweet 10-frame hives.

Care and handling

Install the excluder above the brood box, ensuring the grid lays evenly. Store in a dry place when not in use to protect the wood and metal from moisture and wear, prolonging the product’s life.
