Ladies and gentlemen? Why are my bees NOT eating the syrup I have given them? It is one to one as per the book of words, they cralw up the inside of the tube doofer but don't go near the mix at all. If I dribble some onto them they just "look" at it, clean them selfs and wander away.
 
they will only take it if they need it. They must be getting something better out there.
 
This is what i was thinking as well. Oh well, bees will do what bees will do I suppose.
 
There is a very good lesson here.

Listen to what your bees are telling you.

Take it off.
