Abstract: A preferred embodiment provides a reconfigurable and removable cover securely fixed to an exterior of a hive structure. The preferred material of the cover provides both temperature and humidity control through use of various layers which allow proper air flow. Temperature control is provided by a novel combination of heat absorptive and heat reflective layers and surfaces. A reduction of heat loss in the hive structure reduces the amount of energy required to keep the hive at the desired temperature thereby preserving food resources and preventing colony collapse. The heat reflective layers cool the hive in the summer by reflecting solar radiation.
