Outdoor enclosures help protect bees with housing for hive-monitoring device

07/10/2022

Endangered in Britain, the preservation of bees is vital. Balancing the right temperature and humidity within the hive is crucial, so monitoring these conditions is important in understanding how to protect our bees. One engineer with a passion for beekeeping has turned his attention to creating an electronic sensor that is durable enough to survive through winter in northern Scotland. He turned to Spelsberg to provide the casings that will ensure long-term, reliable monitoring.
