Apimaye Hives – APIMONDIA Gold Medal Hive
State-of-the-art Apimaye hives are user and bee friendly. They will last for years requiring almost no maintenance. Being insulated they are more productive as bees consume less honey, spend less time and energy to maintain the correct brood temperature.
By applying a small amount of canola oil (or similar) the trap forms a great trap for Small Hive Beetle, Varroa Mite and Wax Moth
The removeable tray that faciliates instant monitoring of hive health.
A clever base which can be used with Apimaye Supers (Full Depth and Manley)
In corportates all the features of the full Apimaye vented base - entrance closure, pollen trap, pest/varroa tray
Great for utilising spare 10-Frame supers not in use

The 10-Frame Apimaye Propolis Trap is an excellent way to harvest clean propolis from your hive and add extra income. Replace your inner cover with our plastic propolis trap. The bees will fill the grooves of the trap with propolis.
To remove simply put the trap inside a plastic bag and freeze overnight. Being made of silicone they an be rolled up to fit into your freezer. Once frozen, twist or bang the trap inside the bag against a flat surface to release the propolis.
The Apimaye Propolis Trap is made from quality food-grade silicone (just like kitchen cup cake molds), which make them superior to mats made of poylethylene (PE) or polypropylene PP), so they will not become brittle with age and easily hold their shape for many years.

The Best Bottom Board for your 10-Frame Wood Hive, the Apimaye Type-G bottom boards are designed specifically for the Australian market to be compatible with 10-Frame wooden hives be they Full Depth, WSP, Manley or Ideal.
Just like bottom boards for the famous Apimaye Hive, these Type-G bottom boards are multifunction being equipped with a Pest Drawer so Varroa, SHB and Wax Moth/Grubs that fall through the base on to the Pest Drawer are stuck in the drawer and cannot return to the hive when the Pest Tray is used with a sticky mat or is coated with a light film of canola oil.
All our bottom boards can be used safely in all climate conditions. The unique grill design enables ventilation in extremely hot weather, while helping remove moisture from the bee hive at the very cold temperatures. Balancing the moisture inside the hive results in maturing the honey sooner, thus increasing the hive productivity.
As the bottom boards are equipped with a bottom a drawer, you can have a better understanding of your hive through checking the drawer.
The pollen traps on the bottom boards are specially designed to prevent bee injuries while collecting the pollen. A built in pollen tray enables collecting the pollen hygienically.
The bee hive entrance holes can be opened or closed very easily. The entrance can also be width-adjusted based on the climate.
The air channels built into the board prevents bee losses during transportation.
The boards are built tough against impacts and are durable.
They are easy to clean,
And they are compatible with your hive!
