Achieve unparalleled success in queen introduction with our premium Wood and Mesh Push-In Queen Cage. This expertly crafted tool is designed for the direct-on-comb introduction method, leveraging natural materials and a design that maximizes colony interaction. It is a durable, professional-grade solution for commercial beekeepers and a top-tier offering for beekeeping equipment distributors.
Superior Design and Handcrafted Quality
This queen cage is constructed from high-quality, natural materials to create a tool that is both highly effective and built to last. Its design is based on proven principles of bee biology to ensure a smooth and peaceful queen introduction.
Key Design Features:
- Hardware Mesh Top: The defining feature of this cage is its open mesh top, made from standard galvanized steel hardware cloth. This allows worker bees to have full, direct contact with the queen—they can feed her, groom her, and share pheromones through the mesh. This complete interaction is the key to its extremely high acceptance rates.
- Natural Wood Frame: The sturdy frame is made from a solid wooden ring, giving the tool a professional feel and robust structure that bees readily accept.
- Secure Steel Tines: A ring of sharp, steel tines is firmly set into the wooden frame. These tines are designed to be pushed easily into the honeycomb, providing a secure, deep anchor that prevents the queen cage from being dislodged.
- Low-Profile Dimensions:
- Diameter: 50 mm
- Height: 17 mm This compact, low-profile design allows the cage to fit comfortably between frames with minimal disruption to the hive's natural bee space.
Applications and Unmatched Advantages
This specialized tool is engineered for beekeepers who demand the most reliable introduction method available.
Primary Application Scenarios:
- Maximum-Success Queen Introduction: This is the tool's core function. The beekeeper places the new queen directly on a frame of honey and emerging brood, then presses the cage firmly over her. The mesh top allows the colony to acclimate to her presence completely, resulting in a seamless and peaceful integration.
- Protecting Queen Cells: The cage can be securely placed over a valuable queen cell to protect it from being destroyed before the virgin queen can emerge.
Advantages for the Beekeeper:
- Highest Possible Acceptance Rates: The direct interaction facilitated by the mesh top is widely considered the gold standard for ensuring a new queen is accepted.
- Durable, Long-Lasting Construction: Made from wood and steel, this tool is designed to withstand the rigors of commercial apiary work for many seasons, offering superior longevity over plastic alternatives.
- Promotes Natural Queen Behavior: The queen is able to walk on comb and be fully tended to by the hive, significantly reducing her stress and encouraging her to begin laying eggs quickly.
