ABSTRACT:
A bee hive frame spacer comprising a spacer body having an opening lengthwise therethrough and having double side walls wherein ribbed interior side walls that engage the sides of frame extensions are adapted to compensate for variations in frame extension widths and wherein exterior side walls provide uniform frame-to-frame spacing within a bee hive body and absorb any extra space between frame extensions to prevent the accumulation of propolis. Mounting brackets are provided for attaching the spacer to frames with broken extensions. An extractor tab is provided on the top of the spacer to facilitate prying the frame out of a bee hive with a standard hive tool, and extractor lugs are provided to facilitate removal of frames with a special extractor tool.
