Worth a try, but my experience of rapid feeders in cold weather is they don't work regardless of insulation. Don't know why, Ashforth type ones in nucs work fine but never tried them in cold weather on full hives.
Frame feeders are good, but if you don't fancy drinking all that wine for the corks to add to them..... this one on ebay looks as though it may have solved the problem of drowning bees. Search for item no 193707714873
Just been scammed from an Amazon seller. Bought a pack of 5 entrance feeders via prime for £12,. A pack with one arrived. Now the original advert has changed to suggest it was only ever a single feeder. Ho hum.... Will be sent back for refund.
Why would I spend £12 on 1 when there were plenty of identical feeders available for £3-4 each?
