Don't really have any problems with it, even when there are a lot of bees in the feed section, they rise to the top with the syrup, get cleaned up and carry on, sometimes a few may drown, but more often none do.
That makes 2 of us. I'm always hearing of mass drowning and modding to 8 frame nucs or blocking of the feeders. A handful of sand in the 2nd coat of paint and I have no problems at all. Fed a bunch of mine today as theyd lost a surprising amount of weight in the last 3 weeks or so, still.crazy busy and lots of pollen coming in.
