The excluder creates a physical barrier with openings sized to allow worker bees to pass through freely while blocking the larger queen. This selective passage keeps brood confined to the brood box and keeps honey supers free of eggs and larvae. Beekeepers and apiary technicians install this component as part of standard hive management practice to maintain clean honey production frames.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe QEM-102 is used in standard Langstroth-style hive setups. It is placed between the top brood box and the medium honey super to separate the brood nest from the honey-storage section of the hive. The metal construction provides durability through repeated seasonal use and is resistant to the wax, propolis, and moisture conditions found inside an active hive. This excluder is sold in a package of 6 units, making it suitable for managing multiple hives in a single apiary operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal construction for long hive service life and resistance to wax and propolis buildup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpening size allows worker bees to pass freely while physically blocking the queen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestricts the queen laying area to the brood box, keeping honey supers clean\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositioned between the top brood box and medium honey super for effective hive zoning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold in a package of 6 units for multi-hive operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard Langstroth beehive configurations, installed between the top brood box and medium honey super.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by beekeepers and apiary technicians during hive inspection or setup. The excluder should be installed only after the honey super has been drawn out by the colony. Place the excluder flat and level across the top of the brood box before setting the honey super on top. Inspect the excluder periodically for propolis buildup or warping that could compromise the seal between hive bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 units\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: HARVEST LANE HONEY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: QEM-102\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HARVEST LANE HONEY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51525536121138,"sku":"QEM-102","price":95.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/561568d56e4d160a7af14296d1b52456.jpg?v=1785476580","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/harvest-lane-honey-qem-102-metal-queen-bee-excluder","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
