Evening all,
Has anyone found any problems with bees drowning in the plastic frame feeders? I have heard one or two reports of this and wondered what the consensus was. Do you sand paper down the inside for a better grip? Also, do you provide a bigger, wooden float? (Some are wood already I know, but some are plastic and both seem a little on the small side to me.)
Thanks for your experiences.
