A bee veil keeps stings away from your face, eyes and neck, so it is the one piece of protection worth getting right. Our veils and bee hats fall into two groups: replacement hoods that zip onto a Beewise suit or jacket, and standalone styles you wear over everyday clothes.
Choose by what you already own. If a hood has torn or the mesh has worn, our replacement veils fit Beewise cotton and triple mesh bee suits and triple mesh jackets, adult sizes XS to 7XL. The Euro style has a zippered drop-down front mesh so you can grab a drink without undressing, plus a spline insert that stops the headpiece blowing back onto your nose. The round hat version gives all-round ventilation and also fits our half suits. No suit? A bee veil hat combo goes straight over a shirt: the round veil secures with a neck toggle, while the cowboy style adds shoulder straps. The square folding veil uses stiff metal mesh that lasts for seasons and is worn with a brimmed hat, such as our lightweight pith helmet.
A standalone beekeeper veil leaves your arms and body exposed, so add beekeeping gloves and a bee jacket or full bee suit before opening a strong colony. Not sure which bee veil fits your suit? Ask our Perth or Sydney team.
Struggling to spot the queen or pick out eggs and larvae through a mesh hood? The Beewise Clear View Hood replaces the front mesh with a clear PVC visor, so you can see your frames more clearly, even in low light.
One size fits all Beewise adult bee suits and jackets, from XS to 7XL.
Why Choose a Clear View Bee Suit Hood?
A standard mesh hood is breathable, but the mesh sits between your eyes and the frame. That makes fine detail hard to see: freshly laid eggs, young larvae, or an unmarked queen moving across the comb. The Clear View Hood is based on our popular Euro-style replacement hood, with the front viewing area changed to a clear PVC panel for an unobstructed view.
Features
- Clear PVC visor: a clear view across the upper front for queen spotting, brood checks and close-up hive work, particularly in low light.
- Mesh ventilation panels: breathable mesh on both sides of the hood and across the lower front (mouth and nose area) keeps air flowing, so you stay cooler and the visor is less likely to fog up during inspections.
- 310gsm cotton hood: durable, comfortable and protective.
- Fits all Beewise adult suits: zips straight onto Beewise Cotton and Triple Mesh Bee Suits, Jackets and Half Suits, sizes XS to 7XL.
Who Is It For?
Ideal for beekeepers who do detailed inspections, such as queen finding, checking brood patterns, assessing new queens or monitoring for pests and disease, and for anyone who finds a mesh veil hard to see through, especially in low light.
