Below are Links to some of the Equipment and Products that I use in the Apiary at Castle Hives. Look no further than Rob at Lorob Bees for your Vaporizer, amazing customer service and product. Suiting up for an Inspection, toss on an AWESOME vented jacket from Terry at Guardian Bee Apparel. Looking for a supplement, try Hive Alive. The number 1 rated supplement. Use code BRIAN10 to get 10% off HiveAlive supplement and HiveAlive fondant. Looking for an Insulated Hive, look no further than Apimaye.
