Match Your Beekeeping Hat & Veil to Climate and Work Style
You should start with where you work and how long you stay in the apiary, because heat and sun load hit the head first. In hot, open yards in Africa, Southeast Asia, or South America, a ventilated beekeeping hat with round veil (like our BBE-CWH-2) keeps air moving around your head while the wide brim throws real shade on your face and neck. For longer sessions around defensive stock or tight urban apiaries, a full-face beekeeper hat and veil combo (such as BBE-BV-2 or BBE-CBH-02) gives you more stable clearance from nose to mesh when you lean over brood frames.
