I use these almost exclusively and frame feeders for some special
cases. I always run a little syrup down onto the frames to help
the bees find the source. Usually the feeders are empty within a
few days, if not, they probably have no room for the new stores.
I find that they don't go up if its too cold. Make sure your
feeding's done before the weather breaks.
