“Humidity doesn’t kill bees, condensation does” Amen to that.

His temperature/humidity numbers are matching mine this winter almost perfectly. The graphs look like they were generated from the Broodminder sensors, though he doesn’t mention the vendor’s name. My one outlier is the Lyson poly hive, which I absolutely had to open up at the top in order to normalize the temperature swings - it’s too good at insulating, :-)

It’s almost freaky to trek through the cold we’ve had in the past few weeks (-19 C one morning!) and stand next to a poly hive while the temperature app shows a steady 10C inside through each 24h cycle.
