The waxed cousin of our original drone frame. Developed in conjunction with Jeff Pettis under a USDA Trust Fund Cooperative Agreement, the drone comb frame was introduced as a non-chemical form for Integrated Pest Management (IPM) to fight varroa mites. Colonies instinctively build drone comb to maintain a healthy hive. Rotate frames in and out to manage varroa mite levels. A bright green color makes it easy to identify drone frames. Simply remove the drone frames, scrape clean or freeze to kill and eliminate parasitic mites, and replace randomly.
