Price excludes GST
Regular price
$19.80
Save $-19.80
Top Quality Division Board assembled in NZ — designed for splitting, merging, upper entrances, and optional V-Gate vaporization access.
This NZ-assembled division board is built with a strong wooden rim and durable plywood board. It can be used as a division board, merge board or hive mat depending on your hive management setup.
Use to separate hive sections or provide a dedicated upper entrance when required. Choose from dipped or undipped, front entry, side entry, no V-Gate, front V-Gate or side V-Gate options.
Preorder now — stock due August
This product is available for preorder, with stock due in August.
Preorder now to secure your preferred configuration, including dipped or undipped finish, entry position and V-Gate position.
V-Gate option — vaporizing application made easy
The optional V-Gate Vaporizing port is a dedicated access point built into the division board rim for easier, cleaner and more consistent oxalic acid vaporizing application.
Instead of pushing a vaporizer through timber or using temporary access points, the V-Gate uses a metal-on-metal plate design to help reduce wear, maintain better nozzle alignment and make repeat treatments faster and more reliable.
Dedicated vaporizing port A purpose-built access point for vaporizing directly into the hive without altering the brood box.
Better vaporizing placement Applies vaporizing into the empty cavity above the brood nest, helping achieve excellent coverage through the brood nest.
Ideal with ventilated floors Vapour enters from above the colony rather than escaping out through bottom vents.
Metal-on-metal design Helps reduce wear from repeated vaporizer use and avoids oval timber entry points that can affect nozzle alignment.
Helps prevent nozzle chill Reduces the cooling effect caused by cold, wet wood, helping prevent blockages and allowing more applications before cleaning is required.
Front or side access Choose the V-Gate position that best suits your hive setup and treatment workflow.

Common uses
Hive splits Allows a hive to be divided into separate upper and lower sections when managing splits or queen work.
Winter top vent Can be used to provide a top vent over winter to reduce condensation issues.

Hive space management Helps close off or manage space within the hive, making it useful for smaller colonies or seasonal management.
Requeening support Useful when isolating parts of a colony or managing temporary queen-right and queenless sections.
Seasonal flexibility A versatile board for beekeepers who want one product that can support multiple hive management tasks.

Entry position
Front Entry — includes a front entrance cut-out for upper-hive access.
Side Entry — includes a side entrance cut-out for upper-hive access.
V-Gate position
Front V-Gate — fitted with the V-Gate vapour port on the front of the divider board.
Side V-Gate — fitted with the V-Gate vapour port on the side of the divider board.
Choosing a layout
Choose the entry and V-Gate positions that best suit your hive setup, yard layout and treatment workflow.
For example, a front entry is ideal when the upper section should fly from the front, while a side entry can help keep entrances separated during split management.
Important option note: Front Entry cannot be selected with Front V-Gate, and Side Entry cannot be selected with Side V-Gate. Choose opposite positions if both an entry and V-Gate are required.

Bee Harvester Kit

Regular price
$96.00
Save $-96.00
This bee harvester kit makes it super easy to add more bees to the SpyHive™ if required.
Simply shake some bees into a larger general bucket then tip them into the mesh harvester basket. Clip the funnel on and secure with the lock mechanism. Ensure that the black plug is fitted. Spray the bees with vanilla essence (through the mesh) to calm them and mask the pheromones. Transport them to the SpyHive™ and spray them again with vanilla essence before releasing into the SpyHive™ through the hole in top cover over the pollen pattie compartment.
NB. Vanilla essence diluted 1:3 with water can be used to shield the scent of the bees to stop fighting when introduced to another colony.
Check out the video below to see it all in action.
