Bug FarmerStandard Beehive Kit – Superior Craftsmanship for a Thriving Hive

The Bug Farmer Standard Beehive Kit is designed for beekeepers who appreciate the highest quality in both materials and craftsmanship. Built from tight-grained New Zealand pine, each piece of the hive showcases expert craftsmanship, featuring dovetail joints that provide exceptional strength and stability while insuring the box fits together square and tight. Whether you're starting your beekeeping journey or upgrading your current setup, this all-inclusive hive kit ensures your bees have the ideal environment for growth, health, and productivity.

Key Features:

  • Premium New Zealand Pine with Dovetail Joints: Crafted from tight-grained New Zealand pine, this hive features dovetail joints for superior strength and durability. The dovetail construction ensures the hive is robust, stable, and resistant to warping over time, offering an exceptional build that can withstand the rigors of outdoor conditions.

  • Bottom Board: A solid and stable base that provides ventilation and keeps the hive dry, ensuring your bees are comfortable and healthy.

  • Wooden Entrance Reducer: This practical feature helps control the hive entrance, regulating temperature and airflow, which is especially important in colder months or when introducing new bees to the colony.

  • Deep Hive Box: The spacious deep hive box offers ample room for your bees to build comb, store honey, and raise brood, promoting healthy colony growth.

  • Deep Frames: These frames are perfectly sized for the deep hive box, allowing the bees to build their comb efficiently. The stainless steel pin nails ensure they remain strong and stable for years to come.

  • Waxed Plastic Foundation: The waxed plastic foundation makes it easier for your bees to build comb, allowing for a more efficient and productive hive with less effort on your part.

  • Stainless Steel Queen Excluder: This high-quality queen excluder ensures the queen stays in the brood box while the worker and drone bees have free access to other areas of the hive, optimizing colony organization and honey production.

  • Inner Cover: The inner cover provides extra insulation, protecting your bees from temperature fluctuations and helping to regulate the internal conditions of the hive.

  • Telescoping Cover with Tin Cladding: This durable telescoping cover is weather-resistant and features tin cladding, providing ultimate protection against rain, wind, and other elements, ensuring your hive stays secure and dry in all conditions.
  • Stainless Steel Pin Nails for Frame Construction: The frames are carefully assembled with stainless steel pin nails, offering strength and precision. This ensures the frames hold up to years of use, providing a solid foundation for the bees to build their comb and thrive.
