Beehives & Their Parts

Περιορίζει την είσοδο κι ασφαλίζει κατά τη μεταφορά.

Fits the majority of wooden boxes and hives (but you can cut them if your hives have smaller entrances). Use during transport, as well as for protecting the entrance of the hive against wasps, mice etc. • TIP: To easily secure the door, you can attach a screw-in latch (as ref.NS51822) just above the door, when it is in place for transportation. So you can secure and release it easily, quietly and quickly.

Λύνει το πρόβλημα του νερού στο μελισσοκομείο σας και εξοικονομεί νερό . Το νερό δεν είναι στάσιμο ούτε στο εσωτερικό της ποτίστρας αλλά ούτε στο σημείο που οι μέλισσες πίνουν νερό . Το δοχείο αποθηκεύει νερό από το δίκτυο ή τη δεξαμενή και από εκεί η απορροφητική επιφάνεια το μεταφέρει στο εξωτερικό του. Οι μέλισσες παίρνουν το νερό από την εξωτερική επιφάνεια του απορροφητικού υφάσματος ρουφώντας το. Έτσι μειώνεται ο κίνδυνος μετάδοσης ασθενειών που δημιουργείται όταν οι μέλισσες ποτίζονται από κοινή δεξαμενή νερού. Το νερό στο εσωτερικό του δοχείου αναπληρώνεται αυτόματα. Η στάθμη του νερού διατηρείται πάντα στο ίδιο επιθυμητό επίπεδο μέσω του φλοτέρ που έχει στο εσωτερικό του. Όσο οι μέλισσες απορροφάνε το νερό η απορροφητική επιφάνεια επανέρχεται στη νωπή κατάσταση μέσω του τριχοειδούς φαινομένου. Έτσι το νερό αξιοποιείται στο μέγιστο. Η θερμοκρασία του νερού στην επιφάνεια του απορροφητικού πανιού λόγω της εξάτμισης μειώνεται έτσι το νερό που πίνουν οι μέλισσες είναι δροσερότερο από το νερό δεξαμενής που βρίσκεται στις ίδιες συνθήκες. Συνδέεται σε δίκτυο ή δεξαμενή αλλά μπορεί να χρησιμοποιηθεί και αυτόνομα αφού έχει χωρητικότητα 20 λίτρα νερού. Συνοδεύεται από αυτόματο κούμπωμα ώστε απλά το συνδέετε στο σωλήνα ποτίσματος που έχετε χωρίς να χρειάζεστε οποιοδήποτε εργαλείο. Κατασκευασμένη από πλαστικό κατάλληλο για τρόφιμα.

A very simple way of fastening hives. They are applied very easily, with only three screws. Ideal for wooden mobile bottom boards, since they apply on the sides and not on the front and the back. Galvanized for high corrosion resistance.

Reinforced adjustable hive fasteners The classic adjustable hive fasteners. Adjustable so they can snap in different heights (e.g. when introducing a partition plate between two levels). They are certainly the most popular fasteners in Greece. Galvanized to avoid rusting.

A plastic entrance feeder of great sturdiness. Resistant to the sun and harsh weather. Easy to use and apply in the hive without having to open the hive cover. Manufactured by food-grade plastic. It is available in two sizes: 1kg and 1,8 kg.

Top feeder with two compartments for feeding both liquid and solid food at the same time.
Both compartments can be used for all types of food due to the holes and special plugs that come with the feeder. Thus, you can choose to feed your bees with pollen substitute together with sugar-water or bee candy at the same time. Or choose to fill both compartments with only sugar-water. The compartments can take 4 and 3 kg of sugar-water respectively.
Moreover, the feeder is divided inside and below in 6 independent parts so if you have more than one swarms in the same hive you could feed them all independently without them coming in contact. This is ideal for queen breeders and creation of new bee swarms during spring.
• Provides insulation of the inside of the hive in cold and hot weather.
• When you fill the feeder, you do not disturb the bees, since they are completely isolated behind the divides and you don’t come in contact with them. Ideal for fast feeding.
• Fits into the hive cover and alters the hive height only by a few mms.
• Has vent holes to allow humidity to escape the hive.
• Requires absolutely no maintenance.
• Built from high quality food-grade polypropylene.

Amazing strength, fit for tough use. With five points for hive body stabilization. With bases of special non-slip material, screwed to the bottom, so that the hives do not slip during transportation by truck and the bases remain attached. Accompanied by very practical transportation-protection doors.

Can be connected with the hive body with four different ways:
1. With adjustable front and rear fasteners.
2. With wire fasteners right and left.
3. Screw-in. With special connectors so that the bottom can be screwed permanently on the hive body thus transforming into a brood chamber with non-atachable bottom board.
4. With attachment straps which can be removed after beehive placement to discourage thieves.

What are the advantages of a ventilated plastic bottom board?
• Bees can keep the hive clean very easily.
• When applying treatments for varroa the parasites fall down under the hive thus treating the hive more effectively.
• Ventilation means less humidity and less humidity means fewer chances that nozema will spread in the hive. 

How does it work:

With the above tool you can configure your own ANEL plastic beehive as you wish. Some items are mandatory (base, one hive body brood-chamber and one hive cover) and the others are optional.

Each time you select an item the picture changes, so you see what you are selecting.

From top to bottom, select:

The type of base board and then its color.

Then choose from one to three normal hive bodies (brood chambers) as well as the colors of each. Only one brood chamber is required if you want a single hive.

Frames for the brood chambers are optional. Choose plastic frames (waxed or unwaxed) and their color, or a variety of wooden frames, as well as the quantity. If you want all your hive bodies to have frames, select 10 frames for each hive body.

Then in the same way you choose if you want medium hive bodies ¾ Farrar (honey supers) and their frames. Honey supers and their frames are all optional.

Then choose the type of hive cover you want (mandatory option).

If you want fasteners (optional) select as follows:

• Two long fasteners for each hive body you are ordering (regular or medium).
• For fasteners on the base board and hive cover simply check the box and two pieces will automatically be inserted. The bottom parts of the fasteners go on the base and the hooks go on the hive cover.
• Choose the fastener application service if you want us to screw the fasteners on the hive parts. The quantity you need to choose should be the same as the total number of fasteners you are ordering.

You can then choose, optionally, the type of feeder, type of pollen collector, queen excluders and propolis collection screens.

Each time you select or deselect an item, the final price you see below the list of options changes.

When you have finished the configuration of your beehive, you can select the final quantity of hives next to the "Add to cart" button if you want more than one hive with the same configuration. 

By pressing "Add to cart" your beehives are added to the shopping cart.
