Monitor Hive Weight

Increase Yield With Less Work

The Wi-Fi Hive Scale Eliminates Swarms 

During honey flow, rapid gain in weight indicates the need for another super.

If the weight flattens out during a rapid nectar flow, perhaps new queen cells have been added and the bees have stopped working in preparation for a swarm. 

The Wi-Fi Hive Scale Halts Hive Robbing 

When weight is decreasing daily in a stair step pattern and other hives are simultaneously showing weight gain, bees are removing honey from the hive!

The Wi-Fi Hive Scale Detects Disease Early

Weight loss indication due to disease allows detection and early treatment.

48% of hives inspected in Ohio in 2015 were found with disease.

The Wi-Fi Hive Scale Facilitates Comparing Hive Strength and Productivity

Multiple Wi-Fi Hive Scales can be used to compare the performance of one hive to another within an apiary or in a region to determine if there is a problem.

The Wi-Fi Hive Scale Monitors Nectar Flow Hourly

When the weight increases 30 lbs, it is time to extract.

Watch the weight in winter to insure sufficient stores.
