FAQ
How does it work indoors?
The hive mounts on an interior wall. The colony comes and goes through one Ø20 mm tube to the outside, and the interior face is sealed, so you watch the bees through the viewing face.
Is it safe for my family and pets?
There is no route for bees into the room. Mount the hive out of small children’s reach.
Can I collect honey?
Yes. Symbiotic 3026 has a honey collection system: a funnel guides honey to a removable tray. Slide it out and place a jar in its spot. The amount depends on climate, season and colony strength.
Do I need beekeeping experience?
A local beekeeper introduces the colony. After that you refill the feeder, check in now and then and follow simple seasonal steps.
What is a nucleus colony?
A nucleus, or nuc, is a small colony: a queen, workers and a few frames. Symbiotic is made for nucleus colonies, which stay small and are safe for the environment. You need at least 1,000 g of bees or 5 frames.
Where do the bees come from?
Bees are not included, because local bees suit your climate best and live bees often need permits to cross borders. A local beekeeper sets up your colony.
How long does installation take?
About 20 minutes. You need a 20 mm drill bit, or a 20 mm core drill for concrete. Silicone sealing is recommended.
Will it fit my home?
Yes. It is 43 × 43 × 8 cm and mounts on any interior wall that has an exterior side for the tube. If you rent, a quick word with your landlord about the 20 mm opening is enough.
Is indoor beekeeping allowed where I live?
Rules vary by country and city, so a quick local check is a good first step. Write to us if you would like help.
How fast does it arrive?
DHL Express, insured and tracked. Delivery takes 3 to 5 working days, and you receive the tracking number by email the day it ships. Import duties, where applicable, are paid on delivery.
Do you ship to my country?
Yes, to more than 70 countries. If yours is missing at checkout, write to info@futuristicbeehive.com and we will sort it out.
