Heavy Duty Metal Corner Bee Escape for Reliable Hive Clearing

At HONESTBEE, we understand that commercial beekeeping operations and distributors demand equipment that is not just effective, but exceptionally durable. We are pleased to offer our Heavy-Duty Metal Corner Bee Escape, a premium, long-lasting solution designed for efficient and stress-free honey harvesting. This is a permanent tool, not a disposable accessory.

Professional Design and Robust Construction

This Bee Escape is precision-engineered from a single piece of heavy-gauge galvanized steel, ensuring maximum strength and superior corrosion resistance. Unlike plastic alternatives, it will not warp, crack under pressure, or be damaged by hive tools or pests, guaranteeing a lifetime of reliable service.

The intelligent design features:

• Corner-Fit Shape: The angular design is specifically intended for mounting in the corners of an escape board (clearer board), maximizing the available exit points for bees.
• One-Way Channel System: A central, integrated channel allows bees to travel downwards through the board but makes it physically difficult for them to navigate back up into the honey supers.
• Perforated Grate: A diamond-patterned grid of smooth, round holes allows hive scents and pheromones to pass through, encouraging bees to move downwards towards the main colony.
• Secure Mounting Flanges: Wide side flanges with pre-drilled holes ensure a fast, easy, and secure installation onto any standard wooden escape board.

Specifications and Dimensions

These escapes are sized for a perfect fit on standard beekeeping equipment.

Key Features and Unmatched Advantages

• Exceptional Durability: Constructed from galvanized steel, this Bee Escape is a one-time investment. It is built to withstand the rigors of commercial apiary work, season after season.
• High-Efficiency Clearing: By placing four escapes on a single board, you create multiple exit routes, allowing for rapid clearing of bees from honey supers, often within 24 hours. This significantly speeds up the harvesting workflow.
• Promotes Colony Health: This passive clearing method is far less stressful for the bees than chemical repellents or forceful blowing/brushing. A calm colony is a healthier and more productive colony.
• Maintenance-Free: The robust metal construction requires no special care. It can be easily scraped clean of wax and propolis without fear of damage.

Application and Best Practices

The Metal Corner Bee Escape is used to create a highly effective escape board for clearing honey supers.

1. Installation: Securely fasten four Bee Escapes, one in each corner of a wooden inner cover or a dedicated escape board. The central channel should allow bees to exit downwards.
2. Placement: 24-48 hours prior to your intended harvest, place the escape board between the honey supers and the brood boxes below.
3. Action: Bees in the honey supers will naturally migrate down through the one-way escapes to rejoin the brood nest.
4. Harvest: Return to find honey supers that are nearly free of bees, ready for a quiet and efficient harvest with minimal disruption to the hive.
