Title: Insulation and the KTBH
Post by: Stlnifr on September 30, 2010, 05:18:05 PM
When building a KTBH should I incorporate an insulation factor in to the hive? It wouldn't be hard to do but do I need it. I reside in Mid State South Carolina.

The top is the main place you need insulation.  I just put some styrofoam on top.

Mid state South Carolina.   I would not worry about.
