Yes. Bees, like ants, eat sugar water. Generally 1:1 (i.e. 1 part sugar, 1 part water) is used during most times of the year, as required. 2:1 sugar water can be used during particularly harsh conditions, or in preparation for an incoming nectar/honey flow. The exact recipes, techniques and products used to feed bees are countless, I would recommend contacting your local beekeeping association or club to find out the better methods.

Do honey bees cap over sugar water?

Honey bees do not cap over sugar water like they do with honey. Sugar water is used as a supplemental food source for bees, especially during times of low nectar availability. Honey bees store sugar water in brood cells and consume it as needed, but they do not cap it with wax like they do with honey.
