The gray propolis collection screen from ANEL is softer and more flexible than the corresponding brown screen. As a result, propolis is detached very easily even by hand and does not require freezing. The ideal temperature for collection is 17-20°C.

The new propolis collection screen from ANEL features holes that you can open and place solid food (sugar dough, vanilla, etc.) on top. This way, the bees collect propolis. The walls of the holes also keep the center of the screen elevated so that it doesn't bend under the weight in the center. Thus, the bees fill the entire screen evenly.

The propolis collection screens are placed on the top floor and below the lid. There should be a gap above the propolis collection screen to create airflow, which the bees try to stop by filling the screen with propolis. To maintain the distance, you can use the two built-in spacers on the sides of the screen that fold.

The screen can fill with 60g to 80g of propolis within 10-15 days. Typically, their application is in the spring and autumn. A good year can yield 400g of propolis per hive. All these figures are indicative and depend on the colony, the bee breed, the local flora, and the season.
