7430 ITEM | 28 × 31 × 32 cm APPROX. SIZE |
≈2.5 kg WEIGHT | ONE HAND CARRY HANDLE |
Doröper wooden swarm receiving box for collecting a swarm and controlling its transfer through a sliding floor and closable entrance.
The box combines a sturdy one-hand handle, sliding base and closable entrance. No undocumented mechanism is added to its role.
01 · COLLECTION AND RELEASE
Before approaching the swarm, prepare the receiver, check that the floor slides without binding and decide where transfer will take place. Once the bees have gathered inside, the sliding floor allows them to be released over the destination hive or box without turning the whole receiver over. The closable entrance helps control movement during that operation.
02 · TEMPORARY HANDLING
The manufacturer states approximately 28 × 31 × 32 cm and a weight of about 2.5 kg. Its handle is intended for one-handed use, leaving the other hand available to stabilise the operation. After collection, keep the box supported, shaded and ventilated. It is a temporary receiver, not a shipping container or long-term hive.
03 · BEFORE YOU BUY
The official listing for item 7430 does not state compatibility with a telescopic pole and no pole is supplied. If the swarm is at height, use access and support equipment intended for that work rather than improvising a connection to the handle. Also check available space in the vehicle and transfer box.
| SUITABLE | For receiving an accessible swarm and transferring it to its housing. |
| NOT A | Certified shipping box or a hive for continued occupation. |
| NOT INCLUDED | Pole, destination hive, protective clothing and access equipment. |
