{"product_id":"galvanized-metal-entrance-reducer","title":"Galvanized Metal Entrance Reducer","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eSmall hive, big problem. An unmanaged entrance leaves your colony vulnerable to robbing, drafts, and one of every beekeeper's least favorite winter surprises — mice moving in. This galvanized metal entrance reducer takes care of both issues with one flip of the tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe reducer slides easily into the two side brackets that mount to your hive, giving you quick control over entrance size depending on the season and colony strength. Flip it to one side and it functions as an entrance reducer, narrowing the opening so your bees can defend more easily. Flip it to the other and it acts as a mouse guard, blocking rodents while still allowing ventilation and bee traffic to flow freely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eMade from durable galvanized metal, it won't rust and it won't let you down. A great addition to any hive setup, and one of those small investments that pays for itself the first time you don't lose a colony to mice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eTwo-sided design: one side reduces the entrance, the other functions as a mouse guard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSlides into mounted side brackets for easy seasonal adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eGalvanized metal construction, rust-resistant and built to last\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eMaintains ventilation while protecting the colony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eWorks with standard 10-frame Langstroth hives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eMaterial: Galvanized metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eLength: 39 cm (~15.4 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eIncludes mounting brackets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eA must-have for every hive, especially heading into fall and winter.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Love and Honey Bee Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44982932635856,"sku":null,"price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/7597\/1792\/files\/steel_reducer_1.webp?v=1775856599","url":"https:\/\/loveandhoneybees.com\/products\/galvanized-metal-entrance-reducer","provider":"Love and Honey Bee Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
