Video Description - What Suit to Pick?
In their video, James and Chari Elam conclude that while each type of protective gear has its own advantages and disadvantages, a beekeeper will eventually find the need for both a full bee suit and a jacket. The full suit offers the most comprehensive protection and is particularly important for extensive hive inspections or when dealing with aggressive bee colonies. On the other hand, a jacket can be more convenient for quick check-ups and is generally more comfortable to wear, especially during the hotter months. The choice of protective gear ultimately depends on the specific task and time of year—more beekeeping videos.
Bee Suit FAQs
How does a beekeeping suit work?
Our beekeeping suits are designed to offer maximum protection against bee stings. The material used in our bee suits is thick enough to prevent a bee's stinger from reaching your skin. It's important to ensure your bee suit is properly zipped up, with sleeves and trousers tucked into gloves and footwear to prevent bees from crawling inside. Also, ensure the bee veil mesh doesn't rest against your skin.
What is a beekeeping suit made of?
Our standard bee suits and children's bee suits are made from cotton. The gloves are made of goatskin for maximum hand protection.
What size do I need?
We have beekeeping suits available in various sizes to fit everyone, from toddlers to adults. Your beekeeping suit should be comfortably large to allow a full range of motion. Check out our handy size guide on each product page to find the right fit for you.
