Improve ventilation, pest management, and overall hive health with the Hoover Hives 10-Frame Wax Coated Screened Bottom Board with Entrance Reducer. Designed specifically for standard 10-frame Langstroth hives, this bottom board delivers the durability, performance, and bee-friendly construction direct from Hoover Hives.
Built from solid wood and coated in 100% natural beeswax, this bottom board offers enhanced weather resistance while maintaining a chemical-free environment for your colony. The natural wax coating protects the wood from moisture and decay while giving your hive a clean, attractive finish that blends beautifully into any apiary.
The screened bottom design promotes continuous airflow through the hive, helping to regulate temperature, reduce moisture buildup, and support a healthier colony environment. It also aids in passive pest control, allowing debris and mites to fall through the screen instead of remaining inside the hive.
An integrated entrance reducer allows you to easily manage bee traffic and hive security. It’s ideal for limiting entrance size during cool weather, when installing new packages or nucs, or when protecting weaker colonies from pests and robbing.
Perfect for both beginner and experienced beekeepers, this 10-frame screened bottom board is a practical upgrade that supports stronger, cleaner, and more productive hives season after season.
