Stainless steel queen excluder with frame 378x478 mm DE

Stainless Steel Queen Excluder Mellarius – 378 × 478 mm

Treat yourself to clean honey harvesting without unnecessary worries with the premium wire stainless steel queen excluder from the German brand Mellarius. The excluder measuring 378 × 478 mm reliably prevents the queen bee from passing through into the honey super, so the queen remains in the brood chamber and does not lay brood in the honey super combs. When extracting, you work only with honey, without brood and without complications, saving time and labor during hive management.

Why Choose a Wire Stainless Steel Excluder

Wire excluders made from round stainless steel wires are valued among beekeepers for excellent passage. Worker bees pass through the openings easily and smoothly, with less risk of catching or wing damage, which can occur with some plastic or punched variants with sharper edges. The stainless steel wires are firmly welded into a stainless steel frame, thanks to which the excluder holds its shape well, does not warp, and withstands repeated scraping of propolis. The result is a robust tool with long durability for everyday operation in the apiary.

Recommendations for Hive Placement and Maximum Effectiveness

For best function, do not place the excluder directly on the top bars of the frames. It is better to position it so that bee space is maintained and the bees have room for smooth movement below and above the excluder. Also pay attention to proper orientation: run the excluder wires parallel to the top bars of the frames. This makes it easier for bees to pass into the honey super and also helps maintain natural air flow in the hive.
