Every seasoned beekeeper knows that a well-organized hive leads to better honey yields and a healthier colony. That’s why the galvanized queen excluder 8/10 is an important tool in hive management. Created to keep the queen in the brood chamber, this excluder prevents her from laying eggs in the honey supers, ensuring your honey remains pure and brood-free. If you have a handful of backyard hives or run a commercial apiary, this durable, long-lasting excluder will simplify your beekeeping routine.
Think of a queen excluder as a selective gateway in your hive. Its precisely spaced slots allow worker bees to move freely between the brood chamber and honey supers while preventing the larger-bodied queen from passing through. This means she stays where she belongs, focusing on egg-laying while your honey supers remain untouched by brood.
Beekeepers typically use a queen excluder during the honey season and remove it when temperatures drop so the colony can cluster together for warmth in winter.
Our galvanized queen excluder 8/10 is made from high-quality galvanized steel, to last season after season. Not like plastic alternatives that can warp or break, this metal excluder is sturdy, easy to clean, and gentle on bees’ wings.
By keeping your queen where she belongs, you’ll enjoy a more organized hive, a smoother honey extraction process, and an overall healthier colony.
Heavy-Duty Galvanized Steel: Rust-resistant and built to withstand the elements.
Perfectly Spaced Openings: Allows worker bees to move freely while preventing the queen from accessing honey supers.
