Feed sugar water with a feeder. If you don't have a professional feeder, you can make it yourself with foam. Generally, there will be some depressions in the foam of packaged household appliances. Cut off the excess part of the foam depression with a knife and it will be completed! Bees' feet walk on foam; Under normal circumstances, a normal bee will not slip! If you use a feeder that is too smooth, there will definitely be floating objects. Foam can be used as floating objects because of its high buoyancy.
Method for feeding bees with white sugar water
1, when the external honey source is insufficient, you can feed the bees with white sugar and boiled water, but when cooking, you should master the ratio of water to white sugar, and it is best to cook according to the ratio of one to one. In the process of cooking, it is necessary to constantly stir to fully melt the sugar, and then get syrup. Boiled syrup can't be fed directly to bees, and it should be fed after it cools naturally.
2. When sugar is added with water to make syrup and then fed to bees, it cannot be directly sprinkled on bees or honeycombs. It needs to be put in a special feeder, and the feeding time should be chosen at night. If you add water and sugar during the day, you will steal bees. Get up early the next day after feeding white sugar and adding water, depending on whether all the syrup in the feeder has been drunk. If you haven't finished eating, you need to take it away immediately.
3. The syrup boiled with white sugar and water is generally not used as the staple food of bees, and most of them are the ideal choice for beekeepers to feed bees with rewards and relief. If you feed the bees with sugar and water for a long time, it will cause the bees in the bee colony to produce low-quality honey, which is particularly unfavorable to the income of their own bee products.
