Why are the bee escapes triangular, and why do they have the two different perimeters? Do you think it would work just as well to have any design that required the bee to go down a narrow passageway from the large hole? That would seem to be true given the alternative conical bee escapes so I'm wondering why the complicated two-triangle design exists. Thanks!
I like both but the triangle bee escapes i drill 2inch holes in the corners, and cover with screen, The triangle bee escapes the bees can find thier way back in the suppers
Where do you get your wood supplies or wood. I find the big box stores have a very poor selection of solid wood product for milling or to make IE lids boxes plywood no problem but anything else than plywood I find the big box stores to lack this for my needs so that's the reason for the question.
I've only found 1 supplier of the screened conical escape board in the US, Capital in Wisconsin. If you're aware of any others, I'd love to know of them.

I don't know. You should build some with differing designs and let us know how they work out. Thanks for watching!
Love the "up arrow"!!
It sure saves me a lot of work, and worry. Thanks for watching!

Late to the party but the arrow to me would be the direction of bee travel! I enjoy your videos.
LOL, lucky for you it's not an industry standard or anything hahahaha!

The older lumber yards are great for quality. Sawmills are even better if you need quantity 🙂
I buy from my local Home Hardware. They carry quality products at competitive prices and the friendly service is second to none!

I am really not familiar with bee suppliers in other countries, sorry.
Which escape is better?
Have you ever used those porter bee escapes?
I use both those shown and I have not seen a remarkable difference in performance.
the cones, where do i find them?
I don't know. I don't build those so I've never sourced the cones.
@@ThatBeeMan ok, the small hole in the cones, is it 6,8 0r 10 millimeter? Thank you for all your nice videos
on Alibaba
I just bought a bag of them from Mann Lake
Use a few screws to secure that outer rim. They will keep it from pulling off the frame of the board
