Why a Hive Scale?

During our testing over the last year, we noticed some interesting behavior of two hives. (The beekeeper with these two scales neglected to look at his Hive Scale data due to a computer failure.)

Hive Robbing

Hive Swarm

Both of these hives could have been saved if the beekeeper monitored the trend in the weight of the hive. If bees are managed properly, swarms and disease can be prevented. The Wi-Fi Hive Scale provides the essential data required by the beekeeper to manage the hives and preempt monetary loss.
