Vivaldi Board: ventilated inner cover and dry feeder

Useable through all four seasons to manage the hive environment and as a dry feeder, this product has great flexibility.  In the hot summer days, it provides outstanding cooling with its 12 screened vent holes.  In Spring and Autumn, the same vent holes reduce moisture.  In Winter, you can fill the cover with burlap sack.  The sack is a great thermal insulator and will also wick up the hive moisture generated by the bees, which the vent holes will provide air to draw moisture from the sack.

 

The center ventilation hole, also provides great access to the inside of the hive, making it an excellent dry feeder for products like Drivert suger, pollen powder, and super fine sugar.
