Honey B Healthy Feeding Stimulant with Essential Oils [8 oz]

Feed your bees This honey bee feeding stimulant is made up of lemongrass and spearmint essential oils. It helps promote healthy, vigorous hives. Use in late winter and early spring when nectar supply is low. Can also be added to your feeding mix to help build up packages, nucs and swarms. Can also be used in sugar water instead of smoke to calm bees, or sprayed on foundation to help encourage acceptance. Comes in an 8-oz. bottle.

Mixing Directions for Honey B Healthy:
Shake well. Mix at room temperature. For Feeding: Mix 1-2 teaspoons per 1 quart of syrup. For a larger feed, mix 4-8 teaspoons per 1 gallon of syrup. For Spray/Drench: Mix 4 teaspoons per 1 quart of syrup. For larger quantity, mix 16 teaspoons per 1 gallon of syrup.

HONEY B HEALTHY can be mixed into sugar-water solutions ahead of time and fed when needed. The HONEY B HEALTHY solution mix should be kept in a tightly sealed container when stored for an extended period of time. To insure even distribution of essential oils after storage, shake or stir before applying to hive feeders. Since essential oils are volatile and may evaporate from open containers and open feeders, closed-type feeders are recommended unless consumption by the bees is rapid. If feeding in open barrels, feed during times of nectar dearth when there is a rapid consumption of the mix by the bees.
