Q: Do bumblebees drink water? 💦
A: Bumblebees rarely drink water as they get all their water from nectar. Only honeybees drink water. It’s another reason why we say #FlowersFirst.

🌻 Flowers are recognisable to bumblebees as a source of food. Think #FlowersFirst.
🥤 Giving a bumblebee sugar-water is like giving a child an energy drink. It provides a quick boost but doesn’t sustain them properly.

🌷 Place her on a nearby flower/sheltered spot outside.
🍯 Honey is never recommended.
🥛 Sugar-water is a last resort.
🥇 Think #FlowersFirst. Offer sugar-water ONLY if there are no flowers AND 45 minutes has passed.

Your kindness can kill a bumblebee 💔
📢 Please share! Bumblebee queens are starting to emerge from hibernation. British weather isn’t always ideal and people with the best intentions can cause more harm good. Let’s change that.

Kindness kills … sometimes.
Found an early-emerging Bumblebee Queen?
Honey? 🚫
Indoors? 🚫

↩️Check back. If she still hasn’t moved, the best thing to do is to leave her outside on a flowering plant.
🥛Sugar-water is a last resort when there are no flowering plants nearby. Always think #FlowersFirst.

Thanks for helping! Sugar-water can be just the boost a tired bumblebees needs, but generally it should be given as a last resort. Find out more:
