Bees go through the screen of our pollen traps, where pollen is collected on a tray. Find the pollen trap best suited for your system in our collection.


Gather bee propolis with our propolis trap. Used by bees to protect their hives, propolis has many medicinal properties and has been used to treat various illnesses.
