These frames are bright green so you can immediately
distinguish them from the rest. These cells are drone size and
you will have nothing but drone comb on them in order to attract
and trap Verroa Mites. When it is full, simply remove it from the
hive. You can either scrape off the affected comb and discard it
or place it in your freezer to kill the drones and mites and return
it to the hive to allow the bees to clean it.

Frame Wire 1/2 lb. Spool $4.75 ea.
1 lb. Spool $7.25 ea.
Our frame wire is #28 tinned carbon steel. There is none stronger. The wire
is so small that when embedded, it does not bother the bees. A half pound roll
of wire will wire approximately 100 frames.
Spur Wire Embedder $7.75 ea.
The extra wide wheel of this embedder is well suited for regular, as well as
crimped wire.
Support Pins $5.95 per pkg. of 100
Support pins work very well in brood nests, but wiring is still recommended in
extracting supers. We recommend two (2) pins in each end bar in the two
middle holes.
