Easy Transport for Your Bees: Corrugated Plastic NUC Set with Frames and Foundation

Introducing the Corrugated Plastic NUC Set, your one-stop shop for establishing a new nucleus colony or managing existing ones! This lightweight and portable system is perfect for beekeepers of all experience levels.

Built for Busy Bees:
  • Durable Corrugated Plastic: The exterior of the NUC is crafted from high-quality corrugated plastic, similar to real estate signs. This material offers superior strength and weather resistance, thus, making it ideal for transporting bees safely.
  • Lightweight and Portable: Compared to traditional wooden nucs, the corrugated plastic design is significantly lighter. This, therefore, allows for effortless movement around your apiary or transportation to new locations for pollination.
  • Easy Cleaning and Reuse: The smooth plastic surfaces make cleaning the NUC a breeze. Simply wipe down the interior with a disinfectant solution in between uses.

Complete Starter Kit:

  • Pre-Assembled Frames: The set includes 5 wired wooden frames, essential for housing your bee colony.
  • Wax Foundation Included: Each frame comes equipped with pre-installed wax foundation. This embossed wax sheet jumpstarts the natural comb-building process for your bees, saving them valuable time and energy.
  • Entrance Disk for Control: The NUC features an entrance disc that allows you to regulate the flow of bees entering and exiting the box. This is crucial for managing bee traffic and preventing unwanted pests.

Multiple Uses for Beekeepers:

  • Establishing Nucs: Create a temporary home for a small colony of bees with a queen bee, ideal for overwintering or splitting existing hives.
  • Capturing Swarms: Attract wandering swarms with a pre-prepared NUC, offering them a safe haven to establish a new colony.
  • Mating Nucs: Set up a specialized NUC for controlled mating between a queen bee and select drones.

The Corrugated Plastic NUC Set does not only provide a versatile and user-friendly solution for beekeepers. It is also designed to be lightweight, easy to maintain, and a complete setup makes it a valuable addition to any apiary.
