Plastic comb to clean queen excluders: drags wax and propolis out of the slots. Twin teeth —10 close for plastic grids and 10 wider for metal—, ergonomic ~11 cm handle. Cheap, easy to wash and for any excluder.
Cleaning the excluder by hand is a chore: wax and propolis clog the slots and, if you don't clear them, the workers pass through less easily. This plastic comb drags that gunk off the grid with teeth that fit the slots —cheap, and done in a couple of passes.
The head has two combs: 10 close teeth for plastic excluders and 10 wider-spaced teeth for metal or wire ones. Each set fits exactly into its grid's gaps, so you scrape off wax and propolis without forcing or damaging the bars. Works on any excluder.
Ergonomic ~11 cm handle, solid and easy to grip even with gloves. Plastic: washes easily and won't rust. A small, cheap tool that saves the endless scraping of the excluder with a hive tool at harvest time.
