The Hive Doctor Varroa Lower Board is a screened bottom board engineered for integrated varroa management. Its ventilated design allows natural mite fall, with modelling indicating up to 30% varroa control annually when combined with other treatments. Pre-set wasp guards establish a 9mm reduced entrance across three disk options, while easy-turn dials facilitate pest monitoring and robbing control. The deep floor provides 21% ventilation, closable via optional pest trays for inspection. Features include locator slots for hive straps, securing lugs, universal entrance compatibility for future accessories, and a separate bar entrance reducer.
Available in 10 or 8 frame configurations (53 x 40.5 x 5cm), this Australian-made board reduces phoretic mite reattachment by directing fallen mites out of the hive rather than allowing them to climb back onto bees—a critical advantage during extended honey flows when synthetic treatments cannot be applied.
