Paradise honey 6 frame standard langstroth nucleus hive
6 Frame Standard Langstroth Poly Nucleus Hive: This one is built like a proper hive with a separate floor, varroa mesh, a hive body and roof all interlocking for security and strength.
Our Polystyrene (Poly) hives offer exceptional thermal performance and durability whilst maintaining an ergonomic design. This means a higher honey production compared to wooden hives, but with minimal weight.
A complete high-density polystyrene (EPS) Langstroth hive from leading manufacturer Paradise Honey consisting of:-
Nucleus roof
Nucleus floor
Nucleus standard body
2 x Entrance Reducers
Varroa mesh
2.5m Hive Strap
Screw pack
Please note - division boards are available to purchase separately.
Unlike virtually all other nucleus boxes available, this one is built like a proper hive with a separate floor, varroa mesh, a hive body, and roof all interlocking for security and strength.
The design features a hard plastic ledge for the frames to sit in which will ensure long life and prevent damage when propolis is scraped off. Supplied as a flat pack with full instructions for easy assembly.
A very valuable design feature is the ability to split the hive into two 3 frame nucleus hives through the use of a Central Division Board (purchased separately) and the two entrances, one at each end of the floor. In normal use one entrance is closed off with a plastic entrance reducer and the other is reduced in height.
As with our hives, the roof is reversible so when fitted with a cut-down propolis screen the nuc will be perfectly prepared for transport with no danger of the bees overheating because of ventilation through the varroa floor and propolis screen.
A set of instructions for the use and assembly of the nuc can be downloaded here.
