Harvest Lane Honey WWSB-102 Screened Bottom Board

Product Description

The HARVEST LANE HONEY WWSB-102 is a multi-function screened bottom board designed for Langstroth-style beehive setups. It combines three components into a single unit: a screened bottom board, a sliding solid bottom insert, and a slanted landing board. The sliding solid insert lets the beekeeper control airflow inside the hive without opening or disturbing the colony. Remove the insert fully in summer for maximum ventilation, then slide it back in during winter to restrict airflow and retain heat. The screened floor also supports sticky board placement for Varroa mite monitoring. Beekeepers and hobbyists install this as the base of the hive stack.

This bottom board fits standard Langstroth hive configurations and serves as a direct replacement for setups that currently use a separate solid bottom board, landing board, and screened board as individual pieces. The 3-in-1 design simplifies hive assembly and reduces the total number of components a beekeeper needs to manage. The slanted landing board provides extra surface area for bees returning to the hive. Suitable for backyard hobbyists and small-scale apiary operations alike.

Key Features

• 3-in-1 design combines screened bottom, solid sliding insert, and landing board in one unit
• Sliding solid insert allows airflow adjustment without disturbing the colony
• Full insert removal supports maximum summer ventilation; reinsertion restricts airflow in winter
• Compatible with sticky boards for Varroa mite load monitoring
• Slanted landing board provides additional bee landing surface
• Replaces multiple separate hive base components with a single installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement bottom board for standard Langstroth beehive setups requiring a screened base with integrated landing board and airflow control.

Installation Notes

Installed by beekeepers as the base component of a Langstroth hive stack before setting brood boxes on top. Remove all bees and lift the existing hive bodies before swapping out the bottom board. No specialized tools are required for installation. Slide the solid insert fully out during warm months and fully in during cold months to manage hive thermoregulation.
