  • Transfer a collected swarm from your Bee Vac to any size hive, from a 5-frame nucleus, to the standard Langstroth 10 or 8 frame brood bodies.
    This is a work in progress, but I've found it very useful to get "most" of your bees out of the vacuum collection system and into your hive brood box with no shaking. Then allow the rest of the bees to enter the designated hive on their own. Less stress for the bees and fewer fly-offs.
    Versatile
    This adapter plate will work with your Colorado Bee Vac, or your Everything Bee Vac or others that use a standard hive box or bucket system.
    By designing the adapter plate to fit on top of the wooden 5-frame nucleus hive body below, and sized for the 10 frame hive body above, it will work without leaving a gap.
    I'm not selling them, just sharing my thought process so you can come up with your own version.
    If you want to know more about bee vacuums, I've reviewed these two:
    Colorado Bee Vac -
    • Honey Bee Swarms in ti...
    Works perfectly if you have access to electricity.
    The Everything Bee Vac -
    • Bee Vacuum, PORTABLE, ...
    Self contained with 6 hours of use on a fully charged battery. No need for local electricity.
    The adapter plate will work with every style of bee vacuum that I've seen. In the past, with bees in the vacuum, I was not able to x-fer the bees directly to smaller hive boxes.
