Fighting Collapse with Innovation

Smart Brood Control to Disrupt the Mite Lifecycle

BroodLock Centurion is a hive-integrated smart frame engineered to gently disrupt varroa mite reproduction using targeted cooling cycles during the bee brood phase. Powered by temperature and humidity sensors, the device monitors internal hive conditions and activates a precision Peltier cooling unit to create brief, controlled dips in temperature — enough to interfere with mite development without endangering the colony.

Currently in early-stage R&D, BroodLock is not a finished product — it's a working prototype, built for experimentation and intensive refinement. Our aim is to validate whether sensor-guided thermal interventions can reduce mite pressure with minimal disturbance to the bees and without relying on chemical treatments.

This effort is part of a broader push toward regenerative, data-informed beekeeping — where hives can respond dynamically to threats and conditions in real-time.
