Description
Langstroth Beehive – *shipping not included**
Wooden beehives with shutterply lid, floor, super, brood & all frames WAX STRIPS and wired. HOT DIPPED IN PARAFFIN WAX.
The mainstay of a beekeeper’s equipment. You need beehives to keep bees. There are many different ways of doing this, for example, using clay pots, logs, bark and so many more. The generally accepted beehive used conventionally is the Langstroth beehive.
Preference is paramount again. There are a few parts that make a conventional Langstroth hive: the base, the brood with 11 frames, the super with 10 frames, a queen excluder (not included -R115 extra) and finally the lid.
Delivery or shipping is not included. If not collected from the shop in Cape Town shipping will be applied.
We have had to increase our prices on both types of beehives since we have not had increases for over 2 years! Costs as you can imagine have risen. We cannot hold the previous prices any longer!
All of our beehives are hot dipped in Paraffin wax which is natural weather protection and also acts as a honeybee attractant when placed in direct sun. Weight as it stands = 18kg
All beehive frames are wired and have wax strips.
We can send Assembled beehives anywhere in South Africa within 5 working days by courier.
Got the Hive you’re looking for? |
| Start with a brood chamber, 11 frames with wax foundation, a base, and a lid. One can go the whole hog and get the full deal. The complete assembled hive. REMEMBER!
The frames are all wired & have WAX STRIPS only! This does not include the queen excluder – SOLD SEPARATELY for R125. You can expect to have foundation wax strips in both chambers, 11 frames in the brood, and 10 frames in the super chamber. The hives come hot-dipped, they do not require further treatment. We have opted for the hot-dip all our wood in paraffin wax of our beehives. This means the beehives are dunked into a vat of melted paraffin wax and submerged for 20 minutes. The closest method to having a natural beehive and the best as far as food-grade honey goes. |
