3 Pack – 8 Frame Plastic Beekeeping Queen Excluder to Keep Queen Separate from Honey Boxes in a Bee Hive
Function: A queen excluder works by separating the brood nest from the boxes where the bees will store their excess honey, helping keep the hive organized and making honey harvesting easier.
Using a queen excluder helps a beekeeper be more confident of where their queen is in the bee hive, making it easier to find her among the frames
Ideal sizing: The spaces in the grid are perfectly spaced large enough to allow the smaller worker bees through the holes, but small enough to exclude the queen and keeping her from entering the honey boxes.
