Nicot System is a French manufacturer of queen rearing equipment, most notably the Nicot Cageless Queen Rearing System and associated cell cup kits. The Nicot system revolutionized accessible queen rearing by eliminating the need for manual larval grafting, allowing queens to lay directly into cell cups that are then transferred to cell builder colonies. Widely used by hobbyist and commercial beekeepers worldwide. Nicot products are distributed in the United States through major beekeeping supply companies including Mann Lake and Dadant.
