Pin Killed Brood Assay

Below you will find links to videos and instruction sheets concerning the use of the PKB tool.

The new international queen-breeding “Standard Methods 2.0” paper highlights the pin-killed brood test as a practical, low-cost field standard for selecting Varroa-resistant, hygienic lines. Our EZPZ Pin-Killed Brood Assay Kit puts that tool right in your hand—guide, pin protector, and 50 replaceable insect pins included.

A portion of proceeds supports the Northern Queen Initiative 501(c)(3) and their work breeding mite-resistant queens. Made in United States of America.
