Frequently Asked Questions
How do plastic bee hive frames compare to wooden frames?
Plastic bee hive frames generally last longer than wooden ones because they do not rot or warp and are resistant to pests. Plastic-frame hives also boast easy assembly and require less maintenance when installed, saving time on replacements and repairs.
Are plastic beekeeping frames safe for bees?
Yes, plastic beekeeping frames are designed to be safe for bees. Many beekeeper professionals say bees readily accept plastic frames, and the smooth surface makes them easy to clean to maintain hive hygiene while making it easy to add extra wax to the existing wax foundation without harming the colony.
Do plastic bee hive frames affect honey production?
No, the frame itself does not interfere with honey production. Beekeeping experts commonly use them as reliable structures for comb building, indirectly supporting hive efficiency and potentially improving honey yields.
