National Hive Stand for Nucleus

This Poly Ashforth Feeder made using the same high density polystyrene as our poly hives.  This maintains the  internal temperature and helps protect the bees from adverse weather conditions.

The feeder is simple to use. The bees have access to the syrup through a hole in the bottom of the feeder, enabling them to take food efficiently. The bees enter the feeder, take food and then return to the nest which promotes the efficient distribution of food in the bee colony.

Approx. 5L capacity for syrup.

Note:  Ensure the sliding hole on top of the metal grille remains closed at all times during feeding.  This can be opened up to allow the bees to clean out the feeder once feeding has finished.

Due to the nature of the material this product may not be perfect – any scuffs or marks will not impede its use.
