Customer Reviews
What better way to get started on your flight as a beekeeper with Graham from BuzzBee. A Gentleman of great experience and knowledge of all things apiary. He literally buzzes with enthusiasm. I bought a nine frame Paradise Hive. It consisted three boxes, queen excluder, feed box, an adjustable bee front door slider and of course an emlock. It was delivered within the week. Which is impressive as I live in the Otways in the middle of nowhere. I spoke to Graham on its arrival to query what if any adhesive should be used in constructing the boxes, and what type of paint to use for weather protection A conversation ensued on the colour bees might prefer on the inside. We decided pale green. During the conversation he told me about some ant proof feet he had and since I've had some issues with these little blighters and its the first time I''m beekeeping in a deep rural property, I bought a set of four. They arrived within the week and are top quality. Heavy and well built. Highly recommended. Thanks. Picture shows it painted, situated and ready for its Queen and attendants.
Thank you for your kind comments and sure you will love your Paradise Honey beehive as much as we do.
By the way we love the painting of your beehive. It looks fantastic! I have show it to everyone in our office and has the thumbs up from everyone.
