Excerpt from Wintering Bees: An Exhaustive Treatise of the Subject Covering Both the Outdoor and Indoor Methods

There are two methods in vogue. One is called the indoor and the other the outdoor plan. Which one the reader shall use depends entirely on the locality. Where the winters are extremely cold, with continuous freezing weather prevailing through the cold months of December, January, February, and March, without warm days intervening, the indoor or cellar plan of wintering bees is the one usually followed. However, in such climates some prefer wintering in tene ment hives where anywhere from four to ten colonies can be accommodated. In other places, say fifty or one hun dred miles south of the great lakes, or where there is an occasional warm day, say, one or two a month when bees may fly, the outdoor method of wintering, in double-walled hives, or in single-walled hives with winter cases, is the plan generally in vogue. Throughout the Southern States the 7 plain single-walled hives are warm enough without extra protection.

Indoor wintering in the colder localities does not require double-walled hives or winter cases; but when bees are set out in the spring, some protection should be provided.
