DIY Beehive Heater -- Part 3 of 4 How to build a climate control system for your beehive. Not only does this system heat, but it cools as well. The goal of this system was to build a system that works with standard or flow hives and keeps the bees cool in the summer and warm in the winter and it works. If you want to build a beehive heater that works and is easy to build this is the heater for you. Simple design and all off the shelf parts which were ordered from Amazon. Nothing complex here. Just a working beehive heater with step by step how-to instructions so you can build your own. Your bees will love it.
Here is the list of items you will need. They will also be listed in the comment section. If you build, like and use this hive please give a shout out to the Bug Farmer if you have a channel. Also, please like, subscribe, and ring the bell. :-)

If you are considering becoming a beekeeper or starting beekeeper as a hobby this is the channel for you. I will show you everything I learned in my first year of beekeeping and you can learn with me as I experience and overcome challenges I encounter in my second year and beyond. I will also feature some how-to videos because I am perpetually curious and creative and am always building something.
