Screened Bottom Board for Langstroth Beehives

Improve airflow and support practical hive management with a Screened Bottom Board for Langstroth Beehives from Innisfil Creek Honey. Designed as an alternative to a solid bottom board, a screened bottom board features a mesh floor that allows air to circulate through the hive while providing a functional base for your beehive setup.

Whether you're a beginner establishing your first colony or an experienced beekeeper managing a growing apiary, a screened bottom board is a useful component to consider when assembling or upgrading your Langstroth hive equipment.

Benefits of a Screened Beehive Bottom Board

• Improved ventilation: The mesh floor allows air to move through the bottom of the hive.

• Practical hive management: Provides an alternative to a solid hive floor for beekeepers who prefer a screened design.

• Varroa monitoring potential: When used with a compatible monitoring tray, screened bottom boards can help beekeepers observe fallen mites as part of an integrated pest management program.

• Compatible hive configuration: Designed for use with a suitable Langstroth beehive setup.

• Useful for apiaries of all sizes: A practical hive component for hobbyist, sideline, and commercial beekeepers.

An Important Component of Your Langstroth Hive

The bottom board forms the base of a Langstroth beehive and supports the hive bodies above it. Choosing the right bottom board helps you configure your hive to suit your beekeeping methods and local conditions.

A screened bottom board can be particularly useful when ventilation and pest monitoring are considerations. However, a screened floor alone does not control Varroa mites; use appropriate monitoring methods and proven integrated pest management practices.

Ideal for New Hives and Apiary Upgrades

Use a screened bottom board when assembling a new Langstroth beehive, replacing a worn hive floor, or standardizing equipment across your apiary.
