The Vivaldi Wood Board, crafted from high-quality pine, is designed exclusively for National hives. It functions as a ventilated feeding board with a range of features that promote colony health and simplify feeding.
At the centre of the board is a removable mesh box and a hessian pillow filled with wood shavings, providing effective insulation while absorbing excess condensation. Fondant can be placed beneath the mesh box, and the generous depth of the board allows for the use of rapid feeder when feeding syrup.
During warmer months, the insulation can be removed, and the integrated side vents help regulate hive temperature. Narrow vents on each side are covered when the roof is in place, allowing for flexible and controlled ventilation.
A small top entrance offers bees easy access to their food source, helping to reduce congestion and improve movement and foraging efficiency within the hive.
This well-designed pine board combines feeding convenience, insulation, and ventilation, making it a practical and versatile addition to any National hive.
