ProtectaBEE™ Swarm Stopper Insert (2-pack)

ProtectaBEE™ Swarm Stopper Insert (2-pack)

$12.00

This item does not ship free.  Shipping will calculate in the shopping cart

 

Our ProtectaBEE™ SwarmStopper insert keeps swarms in temporarily, allowing worker bees to leave and enter the hive while preventing the queen from leaving.

 Great for:

1. You’ve caught a swarm with a mated queen and want to ensure they stay inside for a few days! 

2. You find queen cells but don’t have extra equipment on site for a split. Give yourself extra time to get it all together! 

Note it will only keep in a mated queen - not virgin queens! And sometimes mated queens will slim down for swarming - so there’s still a chance she could get through! 

 

Remember you will still need the ORIGINAL ProtectaBEE, SOLD SEPARATELY HERE. 

3D printed with PLA, a corn-based plastic in Canada.

Includes 2 inserts.

So far this spring I have prevented three swarms from leaving. I installed the Swarm Stopper immediately after each mating flight. A day or two later, the bees would attempt to swarm, but without a queen. They would settle back into the hive. The next day I would remove them, and add a brood box or a super.

Hi George, thank you for sharing your input about how this product worked for you. We are happy to hear it went well and you were satisfied with your purchase.
