NICOT® moulded plastic queen excluder, 425 × 510 mm, for Langstroth and Dadant US 10-frame hives. The queen cannot reach the super: you harvest honey without brood and the combs stay pale season after season. Rounded edges, no cold zone as with metal grids, and it withstands 110 °C when cleaning. Does not fit Dadant Blatt.

OVERALL SIZE

LANGSTROTH AND DADANT US FRAMES

Moulded plastic queen excluder for Langstroth and Dadant US 10-frame hives: the queen stays in the brood box and the super fills with honey alone.

The question we get most on this page is the size, so here it is up front: 425 × 510 mm, the 10-frame format. If you run Dadant Blatt — the French and Italian standard — this one will not fit.

01 · COMPATIBILITY

Check the size before you check the brand

It fits Langstroth and Dadant US 10-frame hives, wooden or plastic. It does not fit Dadant Blatt, which is a centimetre narrower and has its own format, nor Layens. If you keep both sizes in the apiary, look at the frame of the excluder itself: Nicot moulds the dimension into the plastic.

02 · HIVE MANAGEMENT

Honey without brood, and a queen you can always find

Workers pass between the bars and the queen does not, so there is no laying above the excluder. The super fills with honey alone and the combs never accumulate cocoon remains or brood pollen: they stay pale season after season and extraction runs cleaner. There is a second benefit you feel at every inspection — with the queen confined below, finding her means opening the brood box and nothing else.

03 · BUILD

Warmer inside the hive than a metal excluder

It is injection-moulded in one piece from semi-rigid, food-grade recyclable plastic, with rounded edges: there are no burrs or welds to damage the workers' wings as they pass. Against a metal excluder it has a real working advantage — it does not create a cold zone inside the hive. Clean it by scraping and with hot water; it withstands up to 110 °C. The whole piece weighs 240 g.

04 · BEFORE YOU BUY

With black bees, think it over first

In some regions and with black bees it is worth weighing up: the excluder can hold the workers back from moving up into the super.
