Boost Your Beekeeping with Quality Inner Covers
Why You Need Inner Covers
​
The inner cover of a beehive is a wooden ceiling with a hole in the middle, placed between the top box (super) and the outer cover. It's crucial for several reasons:
​
-
Ventilation: The hole allows air circulation, controlling hive temperature and humidity.
-
Insulation: It acts as a barrier against extreme temperatures.
​
-
Space: It prevents bees from sticking the outer cover to the super with their glue-like propolis.
​
-
Feeding: Beekeepers can place a feeder over the hole to provide food during scarcity.
