Prepared using powdered sugar and inverted sugar syrup with added thymol dissolved in an alcoholic solution. The inverted syrup is blended into the mixture at 60°C (cold process method), allowing the inversion process to continue within the powdered sugar.
This results in a feed that is 40% sweeter, encouraging steady, controlled consumption while conserving the bees' energy by significantly reducing the need to breakdown complex sucrose.
Suitable for year-round feeding, this feed is particularly ideal during periods of high humidity when the risk of Nosemosis outbreaks is highest.
