Had anybody seen the latest made in Turkey twin walled plastic Beehives on discovery these last few days ? They are suppose to give 25%more honey & best of all a way of controlling varroa using pollen traps to estimate the infestation . Then heavily dusting the whole hive , frame by frame with pure icing sugar . The bees then clean each other of the icing sugar and also pick off the varroa dropping them to the hive floor where they'll die .
I liked the supportive comb frames also made in plastic .... everythign points to this being he way forward for beekeepers once they swallow the cost of a complete hive c/w frames .
Even better is that all the parts are precision interlocking parts so no more odd sized bits that don't quite work well in you multitude of slightly different hives .
It seems the hives come with a pollen trap a sliding door type bee block to restrict entry & queen excluder's , all in smooth food grade plastic .
Check it out on this site apimaye.co.uk Dare we ask for a price ?
