A Simple Yet Vital Tool For Every Beekeeper: OZ Armour Plastic Entrance Reducer

A beehive entrance might seem like a small detail, but it plays a huge role in your colony's overall health and security. Too wide, and it leaves the hive vulnerable to robber bees, wasps, and cold drafts. Too narrow can restrict airflow and make it harder for foragers to move in and out. That’s where our plastic beehive entrance reducer comes in a reliable, easy-to-use solution for controlling hive access in any season.

What Does An Entrance Reducer Do?

Think of an entrance reducer as a front door with an adjustable opening. It limits the hive’s entrance size, giving the colony better control over who (or what) gets inside. Beekeepers use entrance reducers for several reasons:

Winter Protection:

A smaller entrance keeps warmth inside, helping bees conserve energy.

Defence Against Robbers:

Wasps and other honeybees from different colonies won’t have an easy way in.

Support for Small Colonies:

A weaker colony can more easily defend a smaller entrance.

Improved Airflow Control:

Keeps the hive well-ventilated without allowing in too much cold air.

By adjusting the entrance size based on the season and hive strength, you create a safer, more manageable environment for your bees.

Designed For Beekeepers Who Want Reliable, Trouble-Free Equipment

Far from wooden entrance reducers that can warp, rot, or become difficult to adjust, this plastic version is built to last. It’s lightweight, easy to clean, and resistant to weather damage.
