From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to navigation Jump to search

An apidictor is an instrument which measures and records the sound in a beehive. The instrument records the aggregate sound made by the buzzing of the bees' wings, and may help with predicting when a colony is preparing to swarm.[1]

Edward Farrington Woods, a BBC sound engineer,[2] invented and patented the apidictor in 1952,[3] though he sold only 300 worldwide.[1]Template:Explain
