Once a bear develops a taste for honey, bee larva, and the bees themselves, it will likely continue to raid bee yards and reactive methods to dissuade it are less effective than preventative measures. And if one bear finds the bee hives, other bears will likely follow. Therefore, it is important to protect your investment by taking proactive measure to prevent bear damage before it begins.
Electric Fencing Construction
Solar-charged or 110 volt electric fencing is one of the most effective methods to reduce black bear damage.
An electric fence must be well grounded, sufficiently charged at all times, and maintained on a regular basis.
There are two main types of electric fences; permanent/semi-permanent electric fences and a temporary electric fence. Select the type that is appropriate for your colony size and budget.

As far as options go you can have an electric fence charger powered by three ways. First is with a battery. A battery powered fence charger operates on either a 6 V or a 12 V DC power battery. This can be very dependable and work well in situations that require portability. The downfall with battery powered fence chargers is that you have to keep the battery recharged. So you will have to switch out the battery to recharge it.
The second, and probably the most popular way is to operate your fence charger on a mains power. This means operating off 110 V or 220 V current. This current is accessible from your barn or from your house. It's very affordable and fence chargers are much cheaper when they operate on AC power. A big advantage to electric fence chargers that operate on mains, is that they don't require a lot of maintenance because they have all the power they need available whenever they need it from the outlet.
The third way to power and electric fence charger is with solar energy. Basically this is a fence charger that which operates on an internal battery and uses a solar panel to keep the battery recharged. The systems are more expensive than a battery powered or a means powered fence charger system but are nice and portable and harness the power of the sun.
