How the Bee Smoker Works

When properly used, a smoker releases cool smoke into the beehive, prompting honey bees to focus on consuming honey instead of reacting defensively. The smoke also interferes with alarm pheromones, reducing agitation among the bees and ensuring a safer experience for beekeepers.

  1. Add Fuel to the Smoker: Load the chamber with wood pellets, pine needles, or other smoker fuel.
  2. Light the Fuel: Use a safe ignition method to create a steady burn.
  3. Pump the Bellows: This increases airflow and keeps the smoke flowing smoothly.
  4. Direct the Smoke: Gently puff smoke at the hive entrance and over the frames before beginning your inspection.

Why Every Beekeeper Needs a Reliable Smoker

A well-functioning bee smoker is one of the most helpful tools in beekeeping. It protects beekeepers from stings, ensures a less stressful experience for honey bees, and allows for thorough hive management. Using the right smoker fuel enhances performance, keeping the air filled with cool, calming smoke that doesn’t harm your bees or their health.


FAQ – Mann Lake Bee Smoker

Why do beekeepers use a bee smoker?

A smoker calms honey bees by masking alarm pheromones and encouraging them to stay focused on consuming honey rather than reacting defensively.

What is the best fuel for a bee smoker?

Wood pellets and pine needles are excellent fuel choices. They produce long-lasting, non-harmful smoke that effectively calms bees without harming the colony.

How often should I use a smoker when inspecting my hives?

Use the smoker at the hive entrance and lightly over the frames before inspections. Avoid excessive smoke, as too much may stress the bees.

Is smoke harmful to bees?

When used correctly, the smoke is not harmful. It temporarily distracts the bees without negatively affecting their health or productivity.

How do I properly maintain my bee smoker?

Regularly clean out ash and residue from the chamber, inspect the bellows for wear, and store the smoker in a dry place when not in use.
