A nuc with a cover of 50mm kingspan, top and sides. Joints sealed inside and out.
How do you rate the thermal properties of the Pains polynuc? I have a small colony, which I'm thinking to try and overwinter in a smaller, well insulated box.A nuc with a cover of 50mm kingspan, top and sides. Joints sealed inside and out.

YES..... but consider merging with another colony IF your last years queen is failing / and / or never has been prolific?
So when is everyone considering applying their insulation. ...
as above- poly boxes have all year round insulation. so why shouldn't wooden nationals.
