I was wondering how entrance feeders worked? Do the bees have to turn upside down to suck the sugar water out from the holes.

I stopped using them in place of top feeders.  The Boardman feeders triggered robbing every time I used them.

The way to use a boardman feeder is to take the feeder and give it to someone you don't like.  Take the jar and put it over the inner cover hole.  :)  Then put a box around it and a lid on it.

Yes, they are upside down.  But bees are upside down half the time anyway.
