The Miller model queen introduction cage is an essential tool for beekeepers who wish to facilitate the acceptance of a new queen into the hive. This device combines the sturdiness of wood with the durability of wire mesh, providing an effective and long-lasting solution for queen introduction.
Main Features:
• Material: Constructed of high quality wood and strong wire mesh, it ensures a long life and adequate protection for the queen.
• Dimensions: Approximately 100mm long, 12/15mm wide and 30mm high, ideal for fitting comfortably between hive frames.
• Efficient Design: Equipped with a wire hanger that allows the cage to be hung securely between two breeding frames.
How to use:
1. Preparation: Insert the queen into the cage through the longer channel.
2. Closing Channels : Seal both openings using bee fondant.
3. Placing in the Hive : Hang the cage between two brood frames using the wire hanger.
4. Introduction Process : The hive bees will make their way to the queen through both channels. However, they will first reach the shorter channel, which is blocked by an exclusion grid that prevents the queen from leaving. The queen will only be able to leave through the longer channel once the bees have consumed the food mass, a process that takes approximately 24 hours.
Advantages of the Miller Model:
• Facilitated Acceptance: The double channel design allows for gradual and controlled introduction of the queen, increasing the chances of acceptance by the bees.
• Safety and Security : The excluder grid in the short channel ensures that the queen does not exit prematurely, providing a safe environment until the bees are ready for acceptance.
This Miller model queen introduction cage is an indispensable tool for any beekeeper looking to ensure the successful integration of a new queen into their hive, ensuring a controlled and efficient introduction process.
