Bees escape through gaps you did not know the box had, and they find you at exactly the wrong moment, usually while you are driving. Or you seal everything up tight and the colony overheats before you arrive, because a closed box full of agitated bees generates serious heat with nowhere for it to go. Both problems have ended plenty of hive moves badly.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA mesh transport cover solves both at once. It slips over the hive or nuc and ties off with a long string, containing every bee inside while letting air move freely through the mesh. This is the bulk pack of five covers, made for beekeepers who move more than one colony at a time and want a better per-cover price than buying singles.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContained but ventilated\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe reason mesh matters is heat. A colony being transported is stressed, and stressed bees fan hard and run hot. Shut them in a fully sealed box on a warm day and you risk melted comb and dead bees. The mesh holds every bee inside, including the ones that squeeze out of entrance closures, lid gaps and worn corners, while airflow through the cover keeps the colony cool enough to travel. You arrive with the bees you left with, and none of them loose in the ute cab.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFits hives and nucs, ties in seconds\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEach cover is cut from durable mesh sized to fit standard hive boxes and nucs. The long string wraps around the body and ties off, so fitting a cover takes seconds per hive, even at 4am when you are loading in the dark before the bees start flying. No frames to modify, no screens to screw on, nothing left behind on the hive afterwards. When the move is done, the covers fold flat and store in almost no space until the next one.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy five covers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOne cover moves one colony. Five covers move an apiary. This pack is for the jobs where a single cover does not cut it: shifting a full site to fresh forage, collecting several swarms in a season, delivering nucs to buyers, or splitting hives across a second yard. Buying the five pack works out cheaper per cover than buying singles, and having spares on hand means a torn or borrowed cover never delays a move that has to happen tonight.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho this pack suits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSideline and commercial beekeepers moving hives between sites will use all five regularly. Nuc sellers can send colonies out covered and take the covers back on the next visit. Even a hobbyist with three or four hives ends up glad of the full set the first time a whole yard needs to move at once, because moves rarely happen one polite hive at a time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePack size:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e5 mesh transport covers\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDurable mesh, full airflow with complete bee containment\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFit:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStandard beehive boxes and nucs\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAttachment:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLong tie string on each cover\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStorage:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFolds flat between moves\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Beekeeping Gear","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40663263150165,"sku":null,"price":129.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0062\/5029\/9477\/files\/Beehive_and_NUC_Mesh_cover_for_Trans.png?v=1736367080","url":"https:\/\/www.beekeepinggear.com.au\/en-nz\/products\/beehive-nuc-mesh-transport-covers-pack-of-5","provider":"Beekeeping Gear","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
