When was honey invented by bees?

it was not really inveted. bees started to drink the pullen and they started makeing honey. and it was starting probably a little bit before the pioneers. cause pioneers had honey with bread for lunches sometimes. it is a pretty easy consupcion. just have to read about pioneers.Actually bees don't drink pollen they drink nectar from the flowers. Pollen sticks to their legs and bodies as they get into the flowers.I think bees were around a long time before pioneers and bees have been making honey ever since there were bees. That's what they do!

What do honey bees use to make honey?

I would explain it in a simple way: Honey bees collect pollen and nectar in the spring when most flowers and plants are in bloom. They use their long, tubelike tongues like straws (called proboscis) to suck the nectar out of the flowers and they store it in their stomachs and carry it to the beehive. While inside the bee's stomach for about half an hour, the nectar mixes with the proteins and enzymesproduced by the bees, converting the nectar into honey. The bees then drop the honey into thebeeswaxcomb, which are hexagonal cells made of wax produced by the bees, and repeat the process until the combs are full. To prepare for long-term storage, the bees fan their wings to evaporate and thicken the honey (note: nectar is 80% water and honey is about 14-18% water). When this is done, the bees cap thehoneycombwith wax and move on to the next empty comb, starting all over again. So, in a nutshell, the honey we eat is flower nectar thathoney beeshave collected, regurgitated and dehydrated to enhance its nutritional properties.
