Abstract

A device is described for cooling air and directing it onto a hive. As the hive cools, pollinators within have reduced mobility and are not able to move aggressively to attack the remover. A temperature sensor within the device allows the remover to identify when air is sufficiently cooled to reduce pollinator activity without being lethal. As the cold air is blowing, the remover uses attached sharp edges to cut down the hive. As the hive falls on the ground away from the blower where the temperature is warmer, pollinators regain their muscle movement, and can soon resume their normal activities. However, by then the remover is gone and is not attacked.
