Bee Veil Wire with Sun Protection

Protect your face and neck during hive inspections with a simple wire-supported bee veil from Hornsby Beekeeping Supplies. Designed for both backyard and commercial beekeepers, the veil combines light mesh visibility with thicker khaki fabric around the neck.

A flexible wire loop helps keep the mesh away from the face, reducing direct contact between the veil and skin. Meanwhile, elastic loops run beneath the arms to help keep the veil positioned while you move around the hive.

Added Coverage Around the Neck

The thick khaki fabric provides additional coverage around the neck and helps reduce direct sun exposure while working outdoors.

This combination makes the veil practical when you want:

  • Facial protection during inspections
  • Additional neck coverage
  • Lightweight head protection
  • A veil suitable for backyard or commercial work
  • A design that can be paired with a separate helmet

Flexible Wire Keeps Mesh Away from the Face

Maintaining space between the veil and face is important because mesh pressed directly against the skin can reduce the protective distance around the nose, cheeks and forehead.

The flexible loop helps maintain this separation while still allowing the veil to move naturally as you turn your head.

Buying Option

  • One bee veil per order
  • Pith helmet is not included

A Practical Spare for the Apiary

Even beekeepers who normally wear full suits or jackets may benefit from keeping a simple veil available for quick equipment checks, gardening near colonies or short tasks that do not require a complete garment.

Before every use, inspect the mesh for holes and ensure the elastic is positioned correctly beneath the arms.
