Becs BeeHive Supplies & Aussie Beekeeping Gear

It's nice to finally sit down after a week of field day preparation/pack up and orders
And enjoy some honey from one of my suppliers!
Yes, I have my own but show me a Beekeeper who only eats their own 🤣


Many are seeing a nectar flow on now. The trees are celebrating after the last Summer celebration 🎉 🤷🏼‍♀️
Take advantage, as our girls may need all they can get before November brings a natural dearth.

Swarms are everywhere. Swarm Commander can help you bring swarms to your bait hives. Developed to be one of the most attractive lures.

You may require additional equipment!
Or check out the REPORT A SWARM list on our website for someone to collect the swarm for you.
NOTE: less wild colonies means less re-infestations as Varroa spreads

Swarms also leave the hive collecting nectar with no mouths to feed. Watch for honey bound frames.

And last of all,
Our Natures Gold range will help relieve scratches after all this work 🤣

Something every Beekeeper in every Australian state should be aware about

🔥 BEE SMOKER SAFETY ALERT FOR ALL BEEKEEPERS 🐝

With increasing fire risks, it's vital we all take extreme care when using bee smokers in the field.

✅ Always carry sufficient water
✅ Have access to a fire extinguisher
✅ Create & maintain clear fire breaks around your hives
✅ Light smokers in safe, cleared areas (e.g., ute tray or cleared ground)

🚫 During a fire ban:
A bee smoker is considered a contained fire – but the QBA strongly recommends postponing hive work unless absolutely necessary.

🧯 If you must work bees:
Use smokers with extreme caution
Never leave them unattended
Store lit smokers in a fire-safe box when transporting
Fully extinguish your smoker before leaving the apiary

🚨 In the event of a fire – CALL 000 immediately

Becs Beehive is proud to support a number of School based beekeeping programs.

Often a slightly random selection of items as they order in advance for the year ahead.

This Victorian school has 2 separate programs with one needing PPE and bases,
The other has asked for Lids and Queen marking tools.

So interesting how hives in similar areas (even right next to each other) can have such vastly different needs!
