Unassembled kit – with all hardware and parts included – assembles is 10-15 minutes – only a Phillips needed. Designed and built as an improvement over the original, wooden INTERCEPTOR ® Honeybee Swarm Trap. THE INTERCEPTOR ® PRO is a trademarked, patent pending, invention by Robert Frye. CAD designed and vacuum thermoformed with state-of-the-art molding technology. Made with waterproof, UV resistant, high density materials. No painting required – minimal maintenance compared to wood. Durability to last much longer than wood (lighter and stronger). Gray color to reflect and reduce internal radiant energy heat build-up. Volume & Versatility: (holds 5 Langstroth frames). 42+ cubic liters in total volume to assure attraction to the largest swarms. 20+ cubic liters (9) open space below deep frames for swarm organization. Main body (exterior measurements) 20″wide x 20″tall x 8deep. 4″ x? ” center entrance opening. 4″ x ¾” landing pad at the entrance. Weighs less than 7 lbs. Without frames – Less than 12 lbs. With frames & foundation. Designed to accommodate the industry-standard deep or medium Langstroth frames. Transfers to Langstroth hives is fast and easy – just move frames of bees to the hive. Effectiveness and value increases due to pheromone build-up with each swarm capture. “Snap-on/Snap-off” telescoping cover which won’t come off in wind. “Snap-in/Snap-out” 3D printed, ventilated entrance closure for moving trap with the swarm. Stainless Steel fasteners used for joining halves and hanger included (no rust). Predrilled pilot-holes for easy assembly. Hanger with ¾ hole. Dual 1½ screened, louvered, vents for adjusting ventilation. Block one vent in the cool of spring – open both vents in the hot of summer. Retail & wholesale – U. Interested distributors may apply (minimums apply).
