Product Details

Description

The Improved Mann Lake Top Feeder Insert features a galvanized steel safety screen designed to reduce bee drowning.

This top feeder is constructed of heavy-duty, single-piece plastic to provide a no-leak reservoir! The painted wooden surrounding measures 4-5/8"(11.43 cm) deep and fits all standard beekeeping equipment. There is no comparison to the strength and durability this hive top feeder provides over foam top feeders.

With this setup, your bees can access their food through a barricade and steel safety screen to keep them secure. Save time with a high-capacity feeder for apiaries that holds 4 gallons of bee food for the 10-frame option and 3.2 gallons for the 8-frame one.

Benefits of a Hive Top Feeder:

  • Fill the feeder without opening the hive
  • One-piece construction prevents leaking
  • Painted wooden surrounding measures 4-5/8"(11.43 cm) deep

Remove honey supers intended for human consumption prior to feeding.

Pro Tip: If this feeder runs completely empty or the syrup level gets very low, bees may crowd under the screen and struggle to find their way back, which can lead to drowning. To help prevent this, you can apply a bead of food-grade caulking along the bottom of the screen.

    Top feeder

    by EDEN on Jun 08, 2025

    Not sure if there were gaps in the screen as someone else reported, but I had tons of drowned bees in both the feeders.

    Feeder is the Best!

    by El Capitan on May 30, 2025

    Not sure what that one reviewer doesn’t like. These top feeders are tops! No drowning ever, and more importantly the box has a tight seal when placed on hive so there are no ants invading. High capacity so you don’t have to refill often.

    It works as intended and I like the durability of the product

    by Matt Adams on Jul 09, 2024

    The only problem I have with the product is that it had an indentation on the bottom of the feeder but it still functions as is
