I had hives years ago. went to the hills to get a swarm. they were tucked safely in the back of my jeep. they were flying around freely. i got pulled over by an officer. he saw the bees flying around and decided not to ask for any info. teehee

I just recently had a colony of over 10,000 bees ectracted from my property. They are fascinating and so critically important to our Eco-system! They are responsible for every 3rd bite of food we eat!🐝💛

Did you guys know that honey is the only food that NEVER SPOILS. Seriously. you can open a jar of honey in a 1000 years and the honey will still be fresh and eatable.

No honeybee "has" to die after stinging anything. The reason they do is because we usually react to bee stings by swatting at them. Then they panic and try to fly away but their stingers have a little barb on them so instead of fleeing, they tear themselves apart. I saw a documentary where a beekeeper allowed a bee to sting him to show what happens if you don't scare them. In a couple of seconds, she'd worked her stinger free from his arm and had flown away.

mojohand, The drone doesn't have a stinger but dies after copulation. The worker has a stinger but can't mate. We have honey bees & I love them. Here in northern Iowa we have European bees & I pray we NEVER get any Africanized bees. Euros are docile & Afros are vicious.

a beehive consists of 5-6 drones,a single or sometimes two queen bees who breed with the drones,and several worker who are responsible for production of honey,beeswax and other products,scouting for food,feeding the young, guarding the hive,protecting the queen and taking care of the queen,drones and young ones

. As a child I let them crawl on my arm afraid, but fascinated .Two bee stings later in life, then learned not to be afraid. If in your house, do not panic, just open a window and direct them out with no aggression. They respond to good energy or love, if that makes sense to some.

bees pollinate flowers and without them we would have no plants.plants make up a large portion of our diet so we would all die without them.

Suekirider, yes, honey is an antibacterial used in wound dressings! Medihoney is excellent for simple wounds in preventing infections. Spoilage in food is caused by bacteria.
