A device located within a beehive comprising of a framework from which several scrapers (6), spikes (7) and taut flexible blades (8) protrude. These are utilized by honey bees to dislodge Varroa mites and other parasites. Bees are enabled to remove or damage the mites, which are clinging onto them. The mites then fall from the bees past the framework of the device, through the permeable floor of the beehive itself.
