ABSTRACT:
A bottom board for beehives for controlling the direction of travel of arriving and departing bees. Arriving bees are guided directly to the honeycomb frames by means of an upwardly inclined landing deck, which also serves to separate arriving bees from departing bees leaving the hive by means of a descending departure ramp located beneath the landing deck, thus insuring an uncongested one-way traffic pattern. A slotted false bottom located in the bottom board also serves to control the direction of travel of arriving and departing bees.
