Hive Tools and How To Use Them

Описание: I watch many new beekeepers trying to inspect beehives using both the standard hive tool and the J tool and it frustrates me that they appear to have been taught a totally inappropriate way of using them. In today's video I show you how to get the best out of your hive tool and make inspecting a beehive a simple and enjoyable pleasure.

Hive tools are generally available but the ones I'm using here are from the following suppliers.

J Tool is from Bee Equipment

Standard Hive Tool is from Thornes Beekeeping
