ABSTRACT:
The device of the present invention comprises an insulated box, having a drain opening in its bottom wall. Within the box is a ramp wall which is inclined and which divides the interior of the box into upper and lower portions. The ramp wall is inclined downwardly toward the drain opening. A drain extends through the lower end of the ramp wall and through the drain opening. Hangers are provided above the ramp wall for suspending a plurality of bee hive frames above the ramp wall. A heating element within the compartment heats the air to a temperature at least sufficient to melt the wax on the frames so that the wax will melt and run down the ramp wall and out through the drain.
