Metal Entrance Reducer

Designed for beekeepers looking for a simple, durable, and effective way to better protect the hive entrance, this metal entrance reducer is a practical and dependable accessory for seasonal hive management. Its galvanized metal construction provides solid durability and reliable performance for regular use.

Installed directly at the hive entrance, it is designed to keep mice, rodents, and larger insects from entering the hive or taking it over. The openings in the reducer are large enough to allow bees to pass through while still restricting unwanted intruders. This makes it a straightforward and effective solution for beekeepers who want to better secure their colonies without interfering with normal bee activity.

This model can also be flipped to completely close the hive, preventing bees from getting out, while still providing ventilation holes when closed so the bees do not suffocate. Very practical for use in spring, fall, and during winter, this metal entrance reducer is an excellent addition to essential beekeeping equipment.
