Sugar Syrup for Honeybees

Make your own sugar syrup for feeding your honeybees

Total Time 10

1 Mason jar, gallon jug, or 5 gallon bucket (depending on how large of a batch you need to make)
1 Bee Feeder (I use entrance feeders in the spring, and top feeders during robbing season.)
1 Paint stirring drill bit or stick for stirring (this is if you are using a 5 gallon bucket for a batch)

2 cups sugar (if making a gallon, you will need 8 cups, if making a 5 gallon batch you will need a 25lb bag.)
1 tsp Honey-B-Healthy (or use 4 tsp per gallon.)
Water (fill remainder of container with warm water.)

Gather your ingredients and prepare your feeders to be filled with syrup.
Measure out the correct amount of sugar based on the size of batch you want to make (quart, gallon, 5 gallons)
Once you have added your sugar to your vessel of choice, add the correct amount of Honey-B-Healthy.
Fill the remainder of the vessel with warm water.
Shake or mix well, until the sugar is completely dissolved. You may need to let it set for a few minutes to finish dissolving.
Fill your feeders and feed to your bees!
