What is the purpose of a hive coating?

The hive must be protected from external influences for the bees themselves. So that they can care for their queen and produce honey in it in peace, they should feel comfortable. In principle, you can of course place the hives without a coating. However, so that you do not have to replace them so often, painting is an important factor.

Basically, it serves to protect the wood and keep pests away. In some cases, it may make sense to use multiple coats of paint. If you wish to have a certain color, you can also choose from different finishes. The color itself is important mainly for the appearance. Perhaps you would like your hives to be a real eye-catcher in the garden or in the field. Then choose from:

• Brown
• Green
• Natural green
• May green
• White

Impregnation and protection for hives

The hives are the shelter and home for the bees. Here they work diligently and produce the desired honey. But they also seek protection from the weather in them. Therefore, it is all the more important that you also protect the hives from the external influences. For this purpose, a coat of paint is necessary. In principle, you can provide any wood with a weather protection. Partly, however, there are also special coatings, for example, for:

• Pine
