Brand New Design

The new Apimaye 8 frame bottom board is designed for durability, ease of use, and versatility. 

Integrated Pollen Trap

The pollen trap is now integrated and you don't have to remove it. To collect pollen, all you have to do is adjust the entrance reducers for the bees to enter from the center where the pollen trap is located at. This also means you can adjust for partial collection if you would like to keep only a part of the incoming pollen. The bottom board comes with the mite and pollen tray that enables you to easily collect pollen from behind the hive.

Improved Entrance Reducer & Landing Board

The entrance reducers with mouse guard are the new reversible style that enables you to have 2 entrances at the edges of the hive for future 2 colony system. It also enables partial pollen collection. The folding landing board and the lock is also integrated together. With this new single piece design, you don't have to screw the lock to the wooden box, and can easily fold the entrance reducer and lock it when you need to.

Future Proof

We are working on an 8 frame insulated hive, and the when the body is ready, you will be able to use it with this 8 frame bottom board. This bottom board already comes with indents and marks to install latches. All you'll have to do is get the latch and adapter, and the insulated box to turn your bottom board into an Apimaye 8 frame insulated hive. The hives should be available by early 2025.
