Just tried to rescue two of them, bees are all over the Lavenders, tons of them, but there are always a few deaded underneath, it's so sad. We stuck 'em in water, don't suppose they'll survive poor things.

Do you mean you stuck the bees in water, @Ditto , or the lavendars (sorry, my brain is very foggy so not quite following your post)? If the bees, I don't think bees like getting wet, so I don't think putting them in water will revive them - might be better to put them on a nectar-rich flower - and also to make sure you have a bowl of water in the garden which has plenty of pebbles in it so they have somewhere dry to stand to get a drink. You can also feed a bee with sugar-water (two parts sugar to one part water) on a spoon, but only as a one-off thing (like treating a hypo!) - it's not good for them as a regular thing and would be dangerous to leave out for them.

Here's a good article about it - https://www.beevive.com/howtosaveatiredbee
