Metal Grafting Tool – for Left-Handed

Professional metal grafting tool is used for grafting larvae when rearing queen bees – that is, for transferring selected larvae into queen cell cups, queen cells and other breeding equipment. This is a proven and most commonly used method, thanks to which the beekeeper has control over which larva the new queen will be reared from. The tool is equipped with a stainless steel needle and comes from a German supplier. We offer two variants: yellow for right-handed and green for left-handed.

Why choose our professional grafting tool?

Raising your own queens is key to greater self-sufficiency, regular queen replacement and maintaining quality genetics in the colony. This professional metal tool is designed specifically for left-handed beekeepers (green version), allowing for natural grip and precise work even when handling very small and delicate larvae. The finely shaped stainless steel needle is flexible enough to gently pick up the larva along with the necessary amount of royal jelly while reducing the risk of damage. The stainless steel material also promotes high hygiene in queen rearing and contributes to the tool's long service life.

Main benefits and meeting your beekeeping needs

Successful grafting depends not only on experience, but also on properly chosen tools. The left-handed variant helps eliminate the uncomfortable "wrist twisting" that occurs when working with right-handed tools. This makes the transfer of larvae into queen cell cups smoother, faster and more precise. The balanced metal body fits well in the hand, reduces fatigue during extended work and makes it easier to focus on detail. The result is typically higher acceptance rate of grafted larvae by the breeding colony, easier rearing of quality queens and thus more stable colony development in subsequent seasons.
