Condensing Hives

[Sandra DeBow]

My bees ate through my quilt box (pillowcase with wood shavings - messy) and I posted it on my FB Women in Beekeeping group.  I also had moisture on the edges of my telescoping top cover. One of the Beeks shared this discussion of "condensing hives."  I found it so interesting and wonder what others thought.  How controversial is this? I'm certain that someone in our group must know CT's Bill Hesbach and  this "hundred year old theory."

Happy spring! Hope your bees are doing well.
