Title: BRUSHES SPECIAL
Post by: Spomenko on July 01, 2010, 02:56:56 am
You do not have to drag machine for remove bee with them, or remove the blowers while,for upset frame. This is two  brushes to 2 cm apart so that the angle of attacking bees and chasing away the frame is not too sharp (80 90 degrees)
PROCEDURE: Remove ram, and shook the bees pass through the brushes in the picture and then remove frame purr, because the frame with all 6 pages pass brushes in one move and not stay even one bee and if it happens, and pass it again no way to guarantee that remain on the frame or a bee, and all remain get rid above an the hive and not blow ap or packed in the pupil of machine for remove bee.Bees are not cope and all the frames you have is an place,not was upset as with other devices.

Great idea.  Brush both sides of the frames at once. 
It looks like the double brush hangs on a super.

If you had good technique, it probably is less disruptive than using a blower.
