Sugar and water it is then .shows you have to ask the questions .

It is a bumble bee understand now what you mean about rugby jersey

Just reading that you have 16 colonys if i had that i would expect to see the odd dead bee but we have none . thats not to say there are some in the area .I hope the solution works as it seems such a waste if there is an answer.

Thanks for that info next time we see one we will give some . Are we talking sugar and water or will honey do .I would still like to know why our garden is attracting them. We have a good sized one but not many flowers.

Just been trying to find one in photo section here they are not the worker bees .they are fat and round in shape slightly bigger than a one pence peice

These are big bees

I will have a look tomorrow to see if i can find one . I forgot to mention they seem lathargic and dont move much then next time you see them they are dead

Hi all hope someone can help me answer the question .Large bees i presume are what i would call queens keep coming to die in my back garden about six last year and two in the last week . apart from these we never see bees at all in the garden or if we do it is rare .
