I've always loved Mann Lake products, but the oil pan seems to be designed to kill bees! I remedied the problem by sticking 2" foam tape around the base of the hive. I still found a few dead bees each time, but not as many. I was a little surprised when Mann Lake acknowledged tmy concerns about bees having access to the oil. Why sell a product known to kill bees?
The oil trays allow curious bees to enter and die. Plus they're really expensive and flimsy. You used to make nice ones.
This is a decently built product. Please be aware that when the site notes painted, it means lightly primed. The bottom the board was not painted, nor primed.
Should be quite helpful
