methods for pulling honey

Using a brush to remove the bees from a super.


Using a fume board with Honey Robber. You can use Honey Bandit or Fishers Bee Quick. All of these work the same. The trick is to pull honey when it is hot out. In my opinion the Honey Robber works the best and is the least expensive. The Honey Robber is offensive to some beekeepers, the Honey Bandit and Fishers Bee Quick are more pleasant (odor) to work with.
