Wax-Coated 10 Frame Beehive - (1) Deep & (1) Medium Unassembled

Product Description

Hoover Hives bee hive's golden honey glow comes from our patent-pending wax-coating process.

Every bee hive is first steeped in our proprietary blend of organic waxes that penetrate and preserve the wood. After this first cure, we then plunge these bee hives deep into a pool of 100% natural beeswax. With waxed walls, your bees can comfortably make their new hive into their new home. This double wax-coating is also what highlights the flow of the wood grain while paint would only mask its natural beauty.

Hoover Hives bee hive boxes have an unrivaled degree of craftsmanship. Our -cut dovetail joints match up every time and make assembly a breeze. Dovetail joints are essential if you want to keep your bee hive perfectly square without the use of extra wood-working tools. For this project, you'll simply need a hammer.

With this kind of accuracy in every cut, your bee hive will avoid unwanted gaps that would cause extra work for your bees.

Hoover Hives' exterior dimensions are cut to the Industry Standard. Hive parts are completely interchangeable with any other standard Langstroth beehive.

While the Industry Standard would suggest the wood to be a minimum of 1/2", Hoover Hives uses 3/4" thick wood to provide your bees with insulation during both winter and summer. With insulation, your bees won't have to spend time controlling the temperature. Instead, they can spend time collecting pollen & to produce honey.

Which Bee Hive Should I Choose? In the north, winters are long. Having 2 deep brood boxes allows your queen to have plenty of space to lay her eggs in the early spring when it's too cold to add on a bee hive box. In the south, it's warm enough that you can add a box on top of your bee hive without the fear of letting the cold in. Southern Hives don't need two dedicated deep brood boxes for winter. This Starter Hive comes with everything you need except the bees. The most common way to buy bees is by buying 5 full frames in a 'Nuc'. This 5-frame starter beehive is 'Nuc Ready'. The Lite Hive makes a great holiday or birthday gift. It's the perfect bee hive for people who don't know if beekeeping is a hobby they want to get into. We beelieve in you! Both the Northern Hive and the Southern Hive have fully assembled options. Assembling the bee hive is easy, however, it can be time-consuming. If your bees are on the way, this might be your .
