Under advice I am feeding a couple of colonies in an attempt to draw foundation as I am short of drawn comb.
The feeders insist on slowly leaking - apparently from the mesh - but leaving quite a mess in the eke and trickling down the outside...flipping nuisance!... but I have used them before to good effect.
Any ideas why this might be? how to stop it and/or recommend other small feeder (that does'nt drown bees!
many thanks, Floss
