HONESTBEE, your trusted wholesale partner for comprehensive beekeeping solutions, proudly presents our durable and highly effective 8-Way Plastic Bee Escape. Designed for commercial beekeepers and bee equipment distributors, this essential tool streamlines honey harvesting by gently and efficiently clearing bees from honey supers.
Product Description: Design, Dimensions, and Construction
This robust bee escape is meticulously crafted from high-quality, vibrant yellow plastic, ensuring both longevity and high visibility within the hive. Its professional appearance reflects its superior functionality.
Design Features:
- 8-Way Porter Style Exits: The circular design features eight strategically placed, one-way exit tunnels or "spokes." These allow bees to move downwards out of the honey super but make it difficult for them to re-enter. This multi-exit design accelerates the clearing process compared to simpler 2-way or 4-way escapes.
- Central Perforated Area: The center of the bee escape incorporates a series of small perforations. This thoughtful feature allows for continued air circulation and the passage of queen pheromones between the super and the brood box, minimizing stress and disruption to the colony during the clearing process.
- Smooth Finish & Tapered Tunnels: The tunnels are precisely molded with smooth internal surfaces and a tapered design, facilitating easy passage for the bees in one direction.
- Pre-drilled Mounting Holes: Eight pre-drilled holes around the perimeter of the bee escape allow for secure and straightforward attachment to an inner cover or a dedicated clearer board using screws or small tacks (fasteners not included).
Dimensions:
- Diameter: 25 cm (approximately 9.84 inches)
- Thickness/Height: 0.9 cm (approximately 0.35 inches) These dimensions make it suitable for standard Langstroth hive configurations when mounted on an appropriate board.
Key Features and Functionality
The HONESTBEE 8-Way Bee Escape operates on a simple yet highly effective principle:
- Installation: The bee escape is typically mounted onto the hole of an inner cover or a purpose-built clearer board. This board is then placed between the honey supers to be harvested and the brood chamber(s) below.
- One-Way Traffic: Bees naturally move downwards to rejoin the main cluster in the brood box. They can easily navigate through the eight one-way tunnels of the bee escape.
- Prevention of Re-entry: The design of the tunnels makes it extremely difficult for bees to find their way back up into the honey super from the brood chamber.
- Effective Clearing: Left in place for 24-48 hours, the bee escape will guide the vast majority of bees out of the supers, leaving them largely bee-free and ready for harvest.
Advantages for Beekeepers and Distributors
Our 8-Way Plastic Bee Escape offers significant benefits:
- Professional Grade & Durable: Constructed from strong, resilient plastic, this bee escape is designed to withstand the rigors of commercial beekeeping operations and provide years of reliable service. It resists warping and cracking.
- High Efficiency: The 8-way design provides multiple exit points, leading to faster and more complete clearing of bees from supers compared to traditional 2-way escapes. This saves valuable time during the busy harvest season.
- Reduced Bee Stress: Unlike brushing or blowing bees, using a bee escape is a gentle method that minimizes stress on the colony, reducing defensiveness and potential harm to the bees.
- Improved Honey Quality: By clearing bees passively, there's less agitation, leading to cleaner honey with fewer bee parts or alarm pheromones.
- Easy to Use and Clean: Simple to install and remove. The smooth plastic surface is easy to clean and sanitize between uses, promoting hive hygiene.
- Reusable & Cost-Effective: A long-lasting tool that can be used season after season, offering excellent return on investment.
Application Scenarios
The primary application for this bee escape is:
- Clearing Honey Supers: Essential for commercial apiaries and hobbyists alike to remove bees from honey-filled supers before harvesting. It ensures a calmer and more efficient collection process.
- Hive Management: Can also be used in specific hive manipulations where separation of bees from a particular box is required.
Value Proposition for Target Customers
For Commercial Beekeepers:
- Increased Productivity: Faster super clearing means more hives can be processed in a day, optimizing labor and time.
- Healthier Colonies: Reduced stress on bees contributes to overall colony health and vitality.
- Enhanced Operational Efficiency: A reliable tool that simplifies a critical stage of honey production.
For Bee Equipment Distributors:
- High-Demand Product: Bee escapes are a staple in beekeeping, ensuring consistent demand from your customers.
- Quality Assurance: Offer your clients a professionally designed, durable, and effective product from HONESTBEE, enhancing your reputation as a supplier of quality beekeeping equipment.
- Competitive Edge: Providing an 8-way design offers a superior option compared to basic escapes, giving your customers better results.
