Why do bees prefer swiming pool water to nautural water. I have an endless supply and it is closer than the swiming pool.

Chlorine and salt. Plus they drink from the edge of wet, right where wet meets dry.

Temperature
If they increased energy bill for your home by a factor of 4.5 would you consider that cruel? If so why are you doing that to your bees?

I have heard bees prefer water with a scent to it, be it pool water or a puddle in a bunch of cow manure.  Apparently makes it easy for them find it??
