2. This feeder is 100% drown proof with it's corner and center caps placed in the feeder. (caps are included with feeder)
4. With the corner guards removed it gives the bees access to enter the feeder, then it can also act as a dry sugar feeder. This is ideal for winter feedings.
5. It also makes a great dry pollen sub feeder on or away from the hives. Of course, using it away from the hives you would need to cover it to keep out rain, an 8 frame lids work great on the 10 frame feeder.

I have a few of these in our hives and have noticed one hive that keeps drowning themselves in the corner, have you had this issue? Can you use sandpaper or something on the inside of the corners to give them a little more grip?
ReplyDeleteThat's strange, I've never noticed any drowning with my feeders. Yes, sandpaper would be a great way to ruff up the corner pieces to give the bees better traction. If your not aware the corner just snap out. Good luck, I hope it fixes your problem.
