Our Liquid Bee Feed is a food for Honey Bees that can be used to help them build strong colonies, store food for winter, and get through nectar shortages Bee-Sweet is a sugar syrup that is formulated to mimic nectar using disaccharide and monodisaccharide sugars. The disaccharides act like natural nectar, and the monodisaccharides act like honey, which not only stimulates the bees but also helps add weight to the hive. Our special formula of sugars and essential oils provides more benefits to your bees than simply feeding sugar water to your bees. Made in the USA. Improving Your Hive's Honey Supply Different bee hives have different issues—some require support rearing brood, while others need supplemental honey stores for upcoming seasons. When colonies don't have any stored honey or incoming nectar, feeding bees sugar water or sugar syrup, like BEE-SWEET, is the most effective way to avoid losing a substantial amount of the colony. Using BEE-SWEET Liquid Feed Sugar Syrup Bee-Sweet liquid bee feed syrup is best used during nectar dearths, or when sources of nectar are scarce during as colder times of the year. Beekeepers can pour the sugar syrup into the bee feeders and let the hives do the rest. Feeding honey bees has never been easier! Bee-Sweet liquid bee feed won't crystallize and has a stable shelf life, unlike sugar waters which have an unstable shelf life and may only last a few days in the hive and many times, the bees may not use all the sugar water before it goes bad. Plus, there is no more going through the checkout line with a cart full of sugar or making a mess of your kitchen.
