Uses for Acorn Green Drone Comb

Integrated Pest Management (IPM)

Drone brood management is one method beekeepers may use as part of an integrated approach to Varroa mite management. Varroa mites tend to reproduce preferentially in drone brood, so drone comb can be used within a planned monitoring and control program. Results depend on timing, colony conditions and proper management; drone comb alone does not guarantee Varroa control.

Queen Breeding

Drone comb can support the production of drones for queen breeding and mating programs. Suitable drone production depends on colony strength, season and local conditions.

Honey Production

The manufacturer also identifies this frame for use in honey supers, where its larger cells are intended to allow honey to extract faster than honey from standard-size cells. Actual extraction performance will depend on comb condition, honey characteristics and extracting equipment.
