HONESTBEE is dedicated to providing commercial apiaries and beekeeping distributors with tools that are both effective and built to last. We are proud to offer our Slatted Porter Style Bee Escape, a classic and highly reliable device for gently and efficiently clearing bees from honey supers prior to harvest.
Functional Design and Durable Construction
This Bee Escape is precision-molded from high-quality, durable, high-visibility yellow plastic. The bright color ensures it is easily seen against the wood of a clearer board, while the robust material guarantees a long service life, resisting wear and tear from hive tools and bee propolis.
The proven design is based on the classic porter escape principle:
- Slatted Cone Shape: The cone features multiple vertical slats. This design provides numerous entry points, encouraging bees to move down and into the escape.
- Central One-Way Exit: After entering the cone, bees are guided to a small, central opening at the apex. The size and position of this hole make it very difficult for them to find their way back, creating an effective one-way system.
- Wide Mounting Flange: A circular 4.9 cm flange provides a stable base for attachment, with pre-drilled holes for quick and secure installation using screws or small nails.
Specifications
- Flange Diameter: 4.9 cm
- Overall Height: 2.8 cm
- Material: High-Quality, Durable Plastic
- Color: High-Visibility Yellow
Key Features and Advantages
- Rapid and Effective Clearing: The slatted design allows a large number of bees to enter the escape simultaneously, resulting in faster clearing of honey supers compared to some other models.
- Proven Reliability: The porter style is one of the most trusted Bee Escape designs in beekeeping. Its simple, mechanical function is foolproof and works consistently.
- Bee-Friendly Operation: This method is entirely passive and gentle on the colony. It avoids the stress and disruption caused by chemical repellents or blowers, leading to calmer bees and a healthier hive.
- Economical and Reusable: Made from strong, easy-to-clean plastic, this tool is a cost-effective, long-term solution that can be used for countless harvests.
Application and Usage
This Bee Escape is designed for use on a clearer board (or escape board), which is typically a modified inner cover.
- Installation: Most commonly, two escapes are mounted over holes on a clearer board. The board is placed with the cone side facing down, towards the brood chamber.
- Placement: 24 to 48 hours before you plan to harvest, insert the clearer board between the brood boxes and the honey supers you wish to clear.
- Action: Worker bees in the supers will move downwards through the slatted cones and exit through the central hole to join the colony below.
- Harvest: Return to find the honey supers virtually free of bees, allowing for a peaceful and efficient harvest.
