Plastic Pollen Trap

Harvest fresh, bee-collected pollen straight from your own hives. This molded plastic pollen trap mounts at the entrance of a 10-frame colony, so returning foragers pass through a pollen-stripping grid that drops clean granules into a protected tray — ready for you to collect, dry, and store. Features Tough molded-plastic body — lightweight, weather-resistant, and easy to rinse between harvests Pollen-stripping grid sized so foragers can pass while shedding their pollen loads Removable collection tray for quick, mess-free harvesting Ventilated design helps keep gathered pollen dry Run it only when you want to collect, then let foragers pass freely Sized for 10-frame hives — available as a single trap or a 3-pack How it works Install the trap at the hive entrance in the orientation that fits your 10-frame equipment. Returning foragers crawl through the stripping grid, which gently scrapes pollen pellets from their legs. Pellets fall into the tray below, kept separate from the bees. Empty the tray every day or two during a strong flow, then dry or freeze your harvest. Before you order Fits 10-frame equipment. Trap intermittently so the colony still brings in enough pollen for brood rearing. Harvest often in humid weather; fresh pollen draws moisture and can mold if left in the tray. Pairs Well With Wooden Pollen Trap — a wood-bodied alternative that fits both 8- and 10-frame hives Sundance Pollen Trap — premium bottom-mount design for high-volume, clean collection Specs Material: molded plastic Compatibility: 10-frame hives Configurations: Single or 3-Pack Mounting: hive entrance Collection: removable pollen tray FAQ Will the trap hurt my bees? No — the grid is sized to let foragers pass through; it only scrapes loose pollen pellets from their legs. How long can I leave it on? Use it intermittently. Running a trap continuously can starve the brood nest of pollen, so collect for a few days at a time and then open the hive back up. What's in the 3-pack? Three identical 10-frame plastic pollen traps at a lower per-unit price — handy if you're trapping across several hives.
