>The glycerin in the sponges assists in making the OA stick to the bees'
bodies longer.

So hypothetically, if glycerin were added to the sugar syrup and OA used in a drench/dribble, would that assist in making the OA stick to the bees better?  Or would a glycerin and water OA drench be better than syrup...would that promote grooming without ingesting the OA?
