The Bush Bee Man is Australian

Hey! It's February in Australia, Summer time. Why on earth are you feeding the bees sugar syrup???
It does not matter what hole saw you use you have to clean out the hole.
Using your head to save and add to your bee yard.
What about putting the holes on the lid and just flipping the bucket upside down on top of a couple bricks. 🐝
He had one which the new feeder was replacing. It has sticks instead of bricks. The same issue of the pollen forming a crust still happens with sticks/bricks
Ps no frames needed paint scraper one lol unreal.
