Condensation can form on the inner walls of plywood hives, in cold weather, with solid floors. This is because the glue lines make the material less porous than solid wood. However, with mesh floors, which are now in almost universal use due to varroa, the problem does not seem to occur. Perhaps the denser moist air falls out of the hive. Also, the Drawhive is mostly double walled, so should provide better insulation.
