Universal stainless steel mouse guard - 42 mm

Entrance Guard – Mouse Guard Grid

Give your colony a calm and safe overwintering. This stainless steel entrance guard reliably prevents mice, shrews, and other small rodents from entering the hive. During winter, rodents seek warmth and food – if they get inside, they cause stress to the bees, damage the comb, and can even threaten the entire colony. With this guard, you significantly reduce that risk.

Proven slot size for proper hive operation

The guard features slots with a height of 8 mm – a dimension proven in beekeeping practice. It keeps rodents out while still allowing bees to fly freely in spring and to carry out hive debris. Thanks to the entrance remaining passable, ventilation is maintained, which helps reduce moisture and subsequent mold formation during the winter months.

Stainless steel, long service life, and easy customization

The guard is made of high-quality stainless steel that resists corrosion and withstands even demanding outdoor conditions. The standard length is 50 cm; you choose the height according to your hive type and entrance height. If needed, the guard can be easily trimmed with standard tin snips. Installation is quick and hassle-free.

Which height to choose?

Before ordering, we recommend measuring the entrance height on your hive. You can choose from the following options:

26×500 mm (height 26 mm, length 500 mm)
31×500 mm (height 31 mm, length 500 mm)
42×500 mm (height 42 mm, length 500 mm)
