The importance of fresh and unpolluted water near the bees has been widely misunderstood among the beekeeping community.
Under normal conditions a productive-size colony (around 60.000 bees)
needs nearly half a gallon (or 2 liters) of fresh water every day for cooling, feeding,
diluting and maintaining the optimun level of humidity inside the hive for larvae growth.
It takes around a thousand bees to participate and carry this load.By obtaining clean and fresh water nearby, the colonies use up less precious resources from the hive.
