Beekeeper's Kit for Enhancing Plastic Foundation Acceptance

{ "product_opportunity": { "user_problem_source": "Reddit Post (ID: 1kxxh9y)", "user_phrases": [ "I’m just starting out with beekeeping...", "This looks like there wasn't enough wax on the foundations.", "Bees don't seem to like that plastic foundation, so adding wax helps." ], "identified_need": "A new beekeeper is having trouble with bees not building comb properly on what are likely plastic foundations. This is a common issue because the lack of wax makes the foundation unappealing to the bees.", "product_suggestion": { "name": "Bee-Attract Foundation Wax Enhancement Kit", "description": "A kit designed for beekeepers, especially beginners, to help bees accept plastic hive foundations better. The kit would include high-quality, pure beeswax (like pellets or a block), a simple applicator tool (such as a dedicated roller or brush for melted wax), and clear, easy-to-follow instructions on how to apply an additional layer of wax to the plastic foundations.", "components": [ "Pure beeswax (e.g., 1lb pellets or block)", "Small, dedicated wax applicator tool (e.g., heat-resistant brush or mini roller)", "Step-by-step instruction guide with illustrations" ], "target_user": "New to intermediate beekeepers using plastic foundations.", "expected_benefit": "Promotes faster and more uniform comb construction by bees on plastic foundations, leading to stronger, healthier hives, fewer issues with cross-comb or burr comb, and potentially better honey yields. It also helps users improve their existing plastic foundations rather than replacing them." } } }
