The Wielkopolska plastic bottom board is used to control the infestation of Varroa destructor parasites, 
and thus to monitor the infestation of bee colonies with varroosis. Its structure consists of a mesh and a drawer. 
Small debris and Varroa destructor parasites fall through the mesh to the bottom of the hive into the drawer. 
On the other hand, the mesh eyes are so dense that the bees are unable to squeeze through them. 
Thanks to this, they do not come into contact with dirt and parasites in the drawer. 
This enables an accurate assessment of the infestation of a colony with varroa without the need to interfere with 
the nest - it is enough to pull out the drawer and count the parasites.

The plastic bottom board is very easy to clean. 
It can be washed with a pressure washer and disinfected with caustic soda.

The material used for the production of the bottom board is of high quality, resistant to cracking, 
mechanical damage and weather conditions. The plastic bottom board can be successfully used intensively, 
also in migratory apiaries.

The design of the bottom board facilitates proper ventilation (adjustable thanks to a latch and sliding out the drawer),
preventing moisture in the hive. It is also perfect for wintering.

The use of the Wielkopolska plastic bottom will work in every apiary - it facilitates work, increases its efficiency, 
and thus allows you to save time and money.

Bottom board disinfection with caustic soda (NaOH)
The use of strong sodium hydroxide solution on plastic bottoms may lead to the loss of protective properties.

Product Concentration in% Time Temperature Operating range
NaOH 1.0 - 2.0 15mins 20 ° C B, F, V, ABF
After removing from the lye bath, rinse thoroughly under running water, as it will be beneficial for the further use 
of the product. Keeping the bottom board in sodium hydroxide for a longer time will result in a loss of its parameters, 
and thus accelerate the aging process of the product.
