An interesting thought on this clay application...it is similar in particle
size to talcum powder, and some pollens. Will it be easily removed by bees
and returned to the hive? Bees collect substances that are similar in size
to pollen that are not pollen...every experienced beekeeper has observed
this behavior in sawdust piles and bird feeders. Food for thought, and maybe
for larvae honey bees?
