10FR Deep Rim Inner Cover

Our Deep Rim inner cover features a rim with round ventilation hole and quite a deep rim on one side to allow height for for feeding patties. When not feeding patties, flip the cover over so the shallow side is downward. This will prevent bees from building comb just under the inner cover. If you forget, just smoke the bees down and scrape the comb off with your hive tool. Round internal hole accepts a standard mason jar for internal syrup feeding. New for 2022, the notch on the shallow side has been eliminated. Use the deep side with the round hole for ventilation in the winter, and use the shallow side in the summer. The shallow depth is now smaller to reduce burr comb.
