Why you shouldn't paint your hives | Use Eco Wood Treatment! [excerpt from "Honey Harvest pt. 1"]

If you're still painting your hive boxes with regular old latex paint, STOP. It causes the wood to rot and split, which calls for an early replacement of your inner cover. Use Eco Wood Treatment instead! Not only do you get a spectacular finish on the wood, it increases the box's longevity almost indefinitely.

Stay tuned for the whole episode! This is an excerpt from our upcoming Honey Harvest video series. Part one, coming soon!

This video shows you exactly why you shouldn't paint your hives with household paint (especially latex). Allowing the wood to breathe will control the level of moisture in the hive, naturally. The bees produce a lot of heat by themselves, but add an 85-100° sunny day and you've got a humidity trap thermos.
