    what do you seal the inside of the top feeder with to keep the liquid solution from seeping out the joints?

    I just viewed your video on installing hive top feeders. I have these kinds of feeders but my floats are essentially wood ladders that result in many bees drowning in the feeders. In the video your floats appeared to be metal mesh which likely eliminates the drowning I experience. Do you make or sell these metal mesh floats? If so how can I buy them from you?
