I appreciate your kind treatment to not just the bees but to the spider as well❤️❤️❤️. I’m going to make one of these for the bees here in my yard. Thank you!

My aunt has a cast iron cauldron that lays on its side, it holds a small amount of water, the bees love it, we had to move her last summer, and I decided I’m going to gat some cast iron pots at sales just for my garden. 🐝🐝🐝

Hi, I found you from Every Story Counts live show. I've seen you on Daddy Kirbs channel and am glad to find you have one.

[@kathleenanne1718]

If the stones are too smooth will they be too slippery for the bees?

[@happyface2373]

Every morning I make sure there's water in the bird bath slime grows in one day how do I keep the slime away? I have a rather large flat Stone that the birds can land on and that gets slimy too.

[@monicadavison9245]

How often I have to change the water.. I love it..Thankyou

[@aces.9738]

After it rains the container will be overflowing. Do you just tip it over a little to get rid of the excess water?

[@thenectarbar6461]

Yes, or add more rocks.

[@peacefultowers]

Nice video thank you, do you sugar to the water or it’s just plain water?

[@thenectarbar6461]

peacefultowers just water, no sugar.

Like , very good video. Done + bell on. Thanks

[@EdurtreG]

This is nice, but it lacks nutrients. In nature you see butterflies drink from puddles with urine and manure in it. You can mimmick that with some compost, tiny bit of seasalt and a few cowdong grains (biol fertilizer) mixed in the water. 😉 Keep up the good work! Like to watch it.

[@thenectarbar6461]

Yes, you are absolutely right. This has provided water. You can see our video on making Puddler/puddle patch here. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKS9ioB-at2FiqM

[@Louise1107]

The bees tend to prefer rain water to tap water here where I live

[@thenectarbar6461]

Same here.

[@lavendercottageflowerfarm3281]

Do you add epson salt‘s for the butterflies?

[@thenectarbar6461]

Frugal minimalist Vegan, yes I do. But in the Puddle patch, not here in the water.

[@lepidlover0557]

Are you obsessed with butterflies? Because I know I am!!!!!!! 😊😊😁😁😁😁😁

[@thenectarbar6461]

I absolutely am! Glad to know your with me on this obsession too.😁

[@julieankhan.2801]

Meeee too! I'm getting a butterfly feeder (like hummer feeder). After I saw one checking out of my hummer feeder. I didnt know if there was such a thing. There is!! also made a butterfly puddler. Yeah!!!

[@dianam965]

A little sand under the rocks would solve the puddling issue.

[@joanshealy1662]

I thought they like mud puddles not good to have standing water around the house for mosquito breeding and disease yuck

[@thenectarbar6461]

Joan Shealy the rocks prevent the mosquitos laying eggs. As long as your water isn’t sitting above the rocks, you won’t have mosquitoes. ✌🏼💝🦋🦋

Insert “Urhm” countdown pls

[@thenectarbar6461]

FFYE DDANNIEL hi there, I’m sorry, I have no idea what “Urhm” countdown is.

[@claytemorgan1923]

@@thenectarbar6461 , she's being facetious about when you're talking and say, "Um." You're fine! Thanks for the video! I learned to include rocks in my water trays after a wasp fell in. Still trying to attract large numbers of butterflies. I've seen yellow, and also black one's on my Petunias. Don't remember seeing any on the Lantana nor Sunflowers. Thanks again and keep all the fantastic videos coming! 🥰Peace...
