Project Description
Hive Corner Bee Escape Board
- A bee escape is a one-way door that allows workers to leave the honey super and return to the brood nest during the night, but the board foils their attempts to reenter the box. This is used before extracting honey; place a bee escape board (or crownboard) below your box of honeycomb 24 hours before you plan to harvest honey, and you’ll return to find a mostly empty box.
- Measurements: 510mm (L) x 407mm (W) Frame thickness: 21.5mm
- Use by placing below your honey super/s and leave until all the bees have left the honey. Then quickly take the honey super/s away and swap out for your normal hive mat, or the next empty box to be filled!
