This 10 frame cedar bottom beehive board serves as the foundation and entrance to the hive.
Our two-sided, reversible beehive bottom board has a 3/8" entrance on one side and a 3/4" entrance on the other. Made with rabbeted crosspieces to help keep out moisture, it comes fully assembled (screwed not nailed).
Includes wooden entrance reducer for use with new hives.
Hints:
- Remember to clean out your bottom board in the spring. Debris builds up during the winter and can be easily removed with a hive tool.
- Place your hive as level as possible but with a slight tilt forward, so the front of the bottom board is 3/8" lower than the back. This will prevent water from pooling in the back of the hive.
- When painting the bottom board, remember to paint the "landing zone" that is exposed to outside elements.
