ABSTRACT:
A disposable, biodegradable beehive which comprises an enclosure of wax-coated cardboard. The enclosure includes an opening to allow the bees to enter or exit the beehive and a closure for the opening. Small ventilation holes, relative to the size of a bee, are provided to allow air to circulate. A plurality of cardboard layers are fitted to the bottom of the enclosure with a section of the layers removed to form a nest pocket or a dry feed pocket. A float feeder is attached to the enclosure with the feeder element internal to the enclosure, while the main body of the feeder is external to the enclosure to allow the feeder to be supplied with external liquid feed.
