Default Heated Spigot Covers

Having survived the last hard freeze and another coming tonight. My two outdoor spigots that I cannot shut off froze during the last freeze, I was able to thaw them several times before any damage was done.

I've searched and searched but I don't see any pre-made plug in style heated Faucet covers. Does anybody make one? I'm sure I can make my own, but most of the heat tapes require direct contact with the plumbing, which means installing and uninstalling will be a pain in the ass.

Before I go build a big ass box that has 10 feet of heat tape zig zagging inside of it, I wanted to see if y'all have any recommendations/ experience?

These two faucets will require cutting drywall inside my house if I wanted to add a cut off and drain, so I'd like to avoid that if I can.
