New Bee
Folks,
I am starting my beekeeping hobby this spring and settling on final placement of the hives. I have an in-ground salt water pool and plan on providing an alternate water source close to the hives in order to discourage the ladies from using it.
My question is: how close/far from the hives should I establish the water source to coax them in to using it vs. my pool?
