A device 30 and associated process are described for hygienizing and warming beehives aiming at the improvement of the production of organic bee produce, said device comprising providing a bee box 1 containing frames 5 for honey production and bee housing, one frame 5 a being left for inserting a ceramic block 11 provided with at least one row containing from 8 to 32 channels 11 a and where the lower and upper ends of these channels 11 a are opened towards the interior of the beehive, channels 11 a being thermally insulated from the remaining of frame 5 a with the aid of wings 15 a, 15 b and traversed by conducting filaments 14 a, 14 b connected to an energy source 20 through wire 7 , whereby whenever electrical current traverses said filaments 14 a, 14 b the temperature inside said channels attains from 300-350° C. with the consequent heating of circulating air in the beehive by convection, the warmed air from the upper ends of said channels creating a negative pressure in the lower ends of same, whereby the outer colder air is sucked towards the interior of said channels, alternatively by using a fan or air pump, with the consequent extermination of the microorganisms present in the air as they cross warmed channels 11 a.
