Giving honey back

[ShinySideUp]

I have crap-filled honey from my old cappings that I want to give back to the bees and want to put it in a rapid feeder, should I put it in neat or dilute it with water so it flows in the feeder better?

Neat! If you dilute it, it could ferment.

I would just lob it in. If there is a lot of c£ap, then I leave the little cup out of the feeder so the bees can access it better.

If you dont have thymol or hive alive neat if you do it's your choice

Ok, I'll do it neat and leave the cup out, I did think that might be the best way but as with all things, it's best to be sure.

I find that after about 3 days ( depending on quantity) the cap pings are all lovely and clean and dry. If left after that the bees build them into the most imaginative sculpture .
