This is a feeder that can be placed in the fly hole of a bee hive. The two parts should be mounted together with three 3mm wood screws. Fill a jam jar half full of sugar and fill it up with hot water. Poke 6-7 holes in the lid (1,5 or 2mm) put on the lid, cover it and shake loose the sugar. Turn the jar lid down, and place it on the feeder. Make sure you only feed at times so no sugar is mixed with honey you will harvest.
