« Last post by The15thMember on Today at 12:18:08 am »One other thing I forgot to ask about...one of the syrup jars had some black mold in it. Not much, but there was some just the same. How big of an issue is that for them?I wouldn't be too worried about it personally. I might change out the syrup, just so it doesn't get out of hand, but mold is really not that big of a deal for bees. They can even clean it up without any trouble, since their respiratory systems are so different from ours. I will store 1:1 syrup in the fridge to help it to last longer. 2:1 will be fine at room temp.
