Bee Liners;

I am working on a beekeeping development project in the Republic of Georgia
and I keep running into the recommendation to use inverted syrup to feed
bees.  For instance today, I had a new trained beekeeper tell me that
regular sugar syrup would kill bees.  Can someone give me the background on
inverted syrup?  I understand the chemistry, it is the pattern of use I
want to know about.  Advantages, disadvantages......Anything.  I am trying
to keep things simple.

I don't know of anyone in my circle of beekeeping who bothers with it.

any advice appreciated
