I installed my 2 packages of bee's this past Sunday. When I was done I had the sugar syrup cans in hand and I just put them on a bench close by so the bee's could finish them off. Today they were both empty so I was going to through them away. While heading to the trash I got to thinking(thinking is bad sometimes)way not reuse these. I like them because they are short, wide and very stable compared to the quart plastic jar feeders I already have, plus you need to use a base with those. Cans are sealed so you can't get into them. What I did was found a tapered plastic plug about 3/8" or so in diameter. Used a uni bit to drill a hole in the can to the size that was needed. Used a small funnel filled the can to about 90%, put in the plug and took it back where I had it. Turned it upside down and it dripped for a few minutes until the air in the can was used and then it stopped dipping. Might be kind of silly but it didn't cost me anything and took less than 5 minutes to make.
