Both the Western honey bee that we have in the UK and Europe and the Eastern honey bee that lives in India and eastwards are cavity nesters. Usually they prefer to be a distance off the ground to deter predators.
In the wild that means they would look for a hollow tree or even a small cave in places where suitable trees are scarce. But that also means that man-made cavities could be attractive too: a cosy gap between two walls or in a shed.
Other bees have their own particular preferences. Quite a few of them - some bumble bees and miner bees - like to burrow into the earth, especially if it is very dry. Check out a few of the websites and books available - there are thousands of bees so a short answer is impossible.
they help plants grow insofar as they transfer pollen from one plant to another resulting in the fertilisation of seed. this in turn leads to new plants growing. they are however nor gardeners or cultivators.
Yes, bees do need sunlight to fly because they have to be at a specific temperature in order to function. They also require the patterns of sunlight and darkness in order to navigate successfully.
Check the internet. Try putting in beekeeper followed by the area that you live in.
No, yellow ladybugs are not poisonous.
Specifically, the Asian ladybug beetle (Harmonia axyridis) is one of the insects in question (Coccinellidae family) whose background coloring can be orange, red or yellow. Such bright colors serve to warn potential predators of a distasteful meal. A predator famished enough to go ahead and eat a yellow ladybug would suffer an upset digestion but would not die unless some other complicating factor - such as severe dehydration or pesticide exposure - is involved.
i don't think so but i'm not exactly sure. i caught one for a bug collection so i've done a bit of research on them. the one i caught has the biggest stinger i've ever seen! :/ hope this helped
Bee farming (Beekeeping) is when you take care of bee hives and let the bees make honey for you- that's how we get honey. The proper name for this is apiculture (from Latin apis, bee) and the beekeeper is an apiarist.
It is not unknown for cats to try catching bees. If they are successful, this often leads to the cat being stung. This obviously hurts the cat, but normally is not fatal, and the cat usually learns to leave bees alone.
Diatomaceous earth and scratchy organic mulches are ways to kill ants without hurting honeybees in vegetable gardens. Harm to the beneficial insect in question (Apis spp) is avoided by concentrating on the ground, where ants (Formicidae family) are and bees are not. Home remedies revolve around hot water down ant holes and sprinkled cinnamon and salt along ant routes.
Buzz pollination and nectar robberies are ways that carpenter bees help farmers pollinate such crops as beans, dogroses, eggplants, maracujas, passion fruits, and tomatoes. The insects in question (Xylocopinae subfamily member) employ the buzzing sounds that they emit to cause dried pollen to drop out of plants so that pollination is more efficient and widespread for the farm in question. They also perfect nectar-robbing whereby they remove excess nectar -- that otherwise may attract ant swarms -- from such long-tubed flowers as penstemons and salvias by "drilling" a hole in floral bases for "drip-sipping."
Most mosquito repellents will not work on bees. In fact, there are certain fragrances in some mosquito repellents that will actually attract bees.
What they hate is if you get a fly swater and whack hard just to make it mad you get some bee/wasp poison and kill it then that usually will attract the rest of them then kill them no more bees
It is part of their social structure. She is the only one to lay eggs so they would die without a Queen.

Mosquitoes do not eat bees. However, wasps and other types of bees have been known to eat other insects including mosquitoes.
Bees eat honey; it is a form of food that they are able to store for future needs.
Yes they do... that's why when you kick a bee hive jillions of bees come out and harass you. Beehives are gross. Just saying.
new person: NO! Monkeys live in a BEE hive and bees live in candle sticks.
No seriously, BEE hive = BEES. See the connection?
no more dangerous than a regular bee. A queen bee might be considered dangerous because she has a whole hive of other bees at her disposal that are willing to kill or be killed for her.
