The advantage of this method of installation is that HIIVE is better protected from morning dew due to the distance to the ground. The elevated position also allows barrier-free takeoff and landing at the flight hole, even with tall grasses or shrubs.
The height of the trunk can be individually adjusted and modular repositioning is just as possible as securing against theft.


















On the other side our hemp wool has even a carbon negative footprint.








This ensures that each HIIVE is easily repairable, should it ever be necessary to replace individual components due to vandalism, extreme environmental influences or other factors.


Nevertheless, due to the modular structure of HIIVE, there is the possibility to take samples e.g. for foulbrood, just as there is the possibility for various (standard) treatment options against the Varroa mite. When needed feeding is also possible thanks to the removable buckets.






Once the honey chamber has been removed, it can be harvested at leisure with a drone knife. Here, the honey-filled combs can be precisely cut out with the drone knife. Cutting out gives a healthy sense of what is fair and appropriate.
The drone knife can also be used for various other operations.


The bee escape can be inserted after the honey chamber is filled, so that the worker bees can only leave the honey chamber. This means that there are virtually no bees in the dome at harvest time that would be disturbed by the harvest.


In addition to the possibility of carrying out a visual inspection, samples can also be taken via the inspection windows with the help of a spoon.

In addition, the buckets take on the function of a control tray. They are individually removable and can therefore also be used for supplementary feeding.
