There are different ways to harvest honey. You could use bee blowers or chemical repellent boards. A honey bee escape board is both effective and harmless to your colony. Available in different designs, the 4 way bee escape is one of our most popular escape boards. However, there’s also the 8 way bee escape board and others to choose from.
Our bee escape products are easy to install and use. Place it under your honey supers 1-2 days before you intend to harvest to get the best results. The bee escape boards we carry are customisable to better suit your needs. Browse through our selection for your options of bee escapes.
