Beekeeping Tools
Beekeeping tools are essential for maintaining healthy bee colonies and ensuring safe honey harvesting. Common tools include a bee suit for protection, gloves to prevent stings, and a smoker to calm bees during inspections. A hive tool is used to pry apart hive components, while a honey extractor helps separate honey from the comb.
Other important tools include a bee brush for gently removing bees from frames and a feeder to provide supplemental food. A queen excluder helps keep the queen in the brood area, while a hive scale can monitor the weight of the hive for health assessments.
