The most important part of beekeeping is to do with the hive itself because it's where the colony spends the majority of its time. The biggest chore in beekeeping used to be removing the honey from the hive. But thanks to substantial improvements in beekeeping, this task is now far less difficult. The Langstroth is the most widespread and commonly used beekeeping hive in the United States and is the standard around the world. It's what is known as a "movable frame" beehive and the support framework of the Langstroth hive is a wooden, rectangular in shape, and holds the combs inside. Generally, there are up to ten of these combs within the frame at any one time. The combs within the frame will hang on their own as the frames don't actually have a top or bottom; something that is quite amazing to see.

Once complete, the bees will then deposit the honey and pollen into the cells of the comb. The box is made to accommodate the removal of frames that are saturated with the honey that needs to be extracted.On the...more
