They also use harmless smoke on the bees so they stay out of the way and don't sting the beekeepers.

Why are bees eating their own honey?
Bees eat their own honey because that's what they live off of throughout the year, especially during colder months when there are little or no blooming plants for the bees to collect the nectar for the hive. To better understand this, we need to know exactly what a hive is, and I think once you understand what a hive is, the rest will make sense. From the dictionary a hive is a place "to store or lay away for future use or enjoyment." That being said, that is what bees do. They store wax and honey for lean months. As a beekeeper, we take the comb from the hive from time to time to extract the honey for our own use. When we do this, the bees naturally continue to make wax, honey, and propolis. They don't realize that the comb is full of honey is gone, they just know that there is an empty space that they need to create more wax and honey in. When fall comes, the beekeeper, if he is managing his hive properly, will leave in the hive as many combs full of honey to sustain them through the bees winter months. That's why bees eat their own honey.

When it dries it is very hard and strong. Propolis is also water proof.
