Works as it should. Review: Same as the one selling for 3X as much at the beekeeping supply places - Just used it for the first time. Worked perfectly. I don't know why anyone would pay more for the same one from a different supplier, maybe in a different color. There is a small knob attached to the slide on the side, once you have the queen in, you gently slide it up to push her towards the grates at the top. The grates are the same width as a queen excluder so any workers that you scooped up with her can get out but the queen can not. Pause just before the foam plunger is all the way up, wait until she positions herself parallel to the slots with her thorax exposed between and gently push to the top, trapping her in place. The slider mechanism is built so that if she's between the grates it stops positively so you can't crush her but you have to move slowly anyway and only very gentle movement is required- take off your gloves. Make sure her wings aren't caught. She'll be held with her thorax and part of her abdomen sticking slightly through the slot, now you can easily mark her with paint. I left her in that position for 3-4 minutes so the paint could set, then pulled the plunger back, left the gate closed and set it on top of the frames, immediately a lot of workers went through the slots to join her. Left them a few more minutes to be sure the paint was completely dry and smudge proof, then gently pulled the gate open, set it upside down between frames and the queen walked out and down onto the frame, now well marked. Easy. Anyway, if you're somehow hesitant to buy this one instead of the far more expensive one at the beekeeping supply, don't be. It's the same. ## Features - This 6-piece Queen Bee Catcher and Cage Set includes essential beekeeping tools like a marker, marking bottle, hive gate, breeding platform, and clips for efficient and safe queen handling. - Designed for one-handed use, the plastic Queen Bee Catcher securely holds the queen during marking.

It made marking the queen so much easier than the way I was doing it before. I know others didn’t like the built-in stop but I was super glad it was there. It stopped the plunger (don’t know what else to call it) with just enough room that the queen could maneuver a bit but not much. I also appreciate the soft almost rubber like grill that you mark through. It’s just a little added security that those inexperienced like myself aren’t going to crush our beautiful new queens. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/439776145-6pcs-queen-bee-catcher-cage-set-1x-queen-bee-marker](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/439776145-6pcs-queen-bee-catcher-cage-set-1x-queen-bee-marker) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-08*
