Make a Bee Bath

A bee bath is a simple bee water feeder that you can add to your garden or outdoor space. It’s a way of attracting pollinating guests to your yard over and over again.

1. First step you will need to find some rocks from outside. Wash the small planter tray and rocks to be sure they are free from any pesticides.

2. Place the  rocks into the tray. These will provide a place for the bees to land near the water. (Optional: Add additional material to the bee bath, such as sticks or additional stones).

3. Fill the container with water and place it outside near plants or a garden. Refill it frequently to continuously attract bees to your space.

4. Mix until the sugar is dissolved.
