My bees have found the neighbors hot tub. I noticed that they were using the chicken waterer so I thought great no problem. But this weekend my neighbor mentioned that they were going in his hot tub. Some are still using the chicken waterer but some are going to the hot tub.
What can I do at this point?
Are they attracted by the chemicals in the hot tub?
I have three hives. Someone mentioned putting the water where they could crawl to get it. Should I try to set something up for all three hives?
Can I use something to attract them to another water source? Salt, sugar, chlorine?
Thanks,
Rand
