Universal Fume Board
Universal Fume Board
Clearing bees out of a honey super before harvest can mean fumes, blowers, or a lot of brushing — this board uses the sun instead. Spray a bee repellent onto the fabric interior, set it on top of the super, and solar heat drives the smell down through the box, pushing bees out within minutes.
Key Features
- Works with both 8-frame and 10-frame Langstroth hives
- Black aluminum sheeting absorbs solar heat efficiently
- Absorbent fabric interior holds and releases bee repellent evenly
- Clears a super in about 7 minutes under good sun
- Robust wood rim for durability
- Use multiple boards at once to clear several supers simultaneously
How to Use It
Spray a non-toxic bee repellent onto the fabric interior, then place the board directly over the honey super you want to clear. Solar heat drives the repellent smell down into the box, pushing bees out and down into the hive. After about 7 minutes in good sun, the super should be largely bee-free and ready to pull.
