Technosetbee's top feeders are praised by beekeepers all around the world for their superior design and robustness.

It fits neatly inside the Technosetbee roof and takes no extra space. A lot of beekeepers around the world leave this top feeder on the beehive all year round. It doubles up as a hive mat and allows damp air to exit up through the vents and out the roof vents.

The bees have a 7mm passage under the white vent covers at each end of the feeder (as shown in the photo below) to take the syrup without drowning.

To refill the feeder, simply lift the roof and top up without any disturbance to the bees. Alternatively, a feeder valve can be fitted to the roof to avoid even lifting the roof.

Can be used on any standard 10 frame Langstroth bee hive.

Manufactured from high quality food grade polypropylene.

Propolis Mat and huge 14 litre Feeder Combo with kitset rim included.

Made to slot straight on your own conventional 10 frame hive, this feeder will feed your hive for weeks. The propolis collected on the propolis mat provides a great source of extra income and also closes up any gaps around the edge of the feeder.

With central chimney cap feeding cover, as well as feeding chambers at each end of feeder. This allows the bees to drain the feeder no matter what angle the hive is on.

The feeder incorporates some large cavities to hold pollen patties to feed to bees if required.

The kitset rim is made from budget grade NZ Pine and will need to be assembled and placed over the feeder to make it suit your standard hive mat and galvanised lid.

Beequip can assemble and dip the rim in hot microcrystalline wax for preservation if required. Contact direct for pricing.
