drastically reduces the chance of being stung during harvest, but if you drop a full brood frame during a routine beehive inspection, you are sure to attract unwanted attention!
Even the friendliest hive can get cranky sometimes, and when they do you want to know you are wearing the best available prevention wear – our ventilated 3-layer mesh suits are just that.
Cooler than traditional suits, the three intersecting layers of mesh allow breezes in and sweat to evaporate out, whilst the ventilated mesh offers a raised layer of fabric, which sits high and away from the skin, helping to prevent bee stings. Lightweight construction allows for extended beekeeping sessions, so you can get to work like your busy bees even on the hottest days!
Tough enough for heavy commercial use, our ventilated 3-layer mesh suits are also perfect for newbees so they can feel cool, confident and comfortable while they learn.
This package also comes with lightweight, ventilated gauntlet goatskin gloves and a J-style hive tool handmade with German stainless-steel.
What makes it so great?
Featuring ankle zippers which enable you to put the suit on or remove it without taking off your boots, these roomy suits come with thick, GOTS certified organic cotton lined breast and side pockets, plus knee and elbow gaiters.
Equipped with durable, high-quality YKK zippers, a removable fencing veil, anti-bunch elastic thumb and ankle stirrups – these packages also include lightweight, ventilated gauntlet goatskin gloves and a J-style hive tool handmade from German stainless-steel – offering the ultimate comfort in sting prevention.
