Found this exhausted bee on the floor and left two containers of sugar water for her to choose from. She won't go for them though. What else can I do to help her?

unrelated but a saw a sign in the ag supply store about when to order your bees for delivery, and i'm just now finding out you can just order the bees to your house.
You can indeed. They come in little yellow boxes. Each queen has a little entourage of workers and a plug of bee candy/bee fondant (basically a thick icing sugar mix). The little yellow box is the put in a cardboard container and there is a sticker on it that says, "caution, living contents".
Neat
