Candy-solid feed for bees in winter and spring
One of the main advantages of canda over syrup is that it does not excite bees during winter feeding, because they use it directly, and do not put it in cell cells.

with a thickness of no more than 6 mm can be placed above the frames and under the lid of the hive. In this way, a family that would otherwise have perished can be saved. Feeding with syrup, especially in spring, often strongly excites bees, sometimes it causes theft. Therefore, it is much safer to give candy.
