Bees and Beekeeping

honey

And wax.

They say that if bees and other pollinating insects didn't exist, life would eventually die out on earth.

It is estimated that one mouthful in every three you eat are there as the direct result of pollination by bees. If we were to lose them we would lose most top fruit (apples, pears, cherries, and so on), most nuts, a large proportion of vegetables and a lot of flower species. The one major food crop to be unaffected would be cereals because as they are basically grasses they are wind pollinated. However, you may not mind living on a diet of bread and porridge but I prefer a bigger selection.

If bees had never existed, it is almost certain some other species would have taken up the task of pollinating plants in return for nectar at some time in pre-history.

They fan it with there wings.

Last night, on the H2 channel, I saw a documentary on killer bees in Arizona. I heard they are migrating up the northern state like Minnesota. Is that true?

Yes, bumble bees do fight. Though only certain ones do the drones which are the males fight to establish who is more dominant and the queen will fight to death any of her daughters who try to take over the hive.

hot

very carefully

to produce honey

pollen

water sugan

They certainly do but they try and avoid it if they can.

Bees can see UV light. (ultra violet light), that we, humans can't see. So, actually any flower attracts bees.

more like Spiders

only bee's can is because they have extra far eye site so theat they can see far and very small things

Honeybees are venomous it doesnt effect humans thou, unless its multiple stings

Man made bees wax will attract bees if it has an strong perfumes added to it. Most bees tend to be attracted to fresh nectars or sweet scents in nature.

Bees kill their queen because their queen might be to old or the queen might have a diesease

The entire earth is pollinated due to the bees. If they were to disapear from the earth, plant life would cease to exist in less than 10 years. Sustainable life would end.

One brood box and as many supers as you need.

It is honey that is produced by bees that have been foraging mainly on a plant called Oil Seed Rape which is used to make cooking oil and flowers in April and May.

bees come in the form of groups in different ways e-g

a group of bees have made their nest or hive in the ship or any other source of travelling vehicle and when these vehicles travel in other countries or regions they travel from cities to cities.

Yes, but they will eventually die because they're not protected from the weather.

The worker bees are female

Weasels, moles and voles are not known to do eat yellow jackets in their ground nests and other ground dwelling bees. Honey bees in their hives, no. But moles will dig right up the the underground hive and eat them all up, may take some time but this is a good habit for moles an the reason they can be welcome in our yard at times. Other animals that will dig out ground dwelling bees are raccoon, skunk, armadillo, bear. It is said that eagle even enjoy feasting on these insects. Encourage these predators to kill a destructive yellow jacket nest by pouring some honey around the hole. We use anything but poison on the dangerous "bees" and try to keep all wildlife safe. The honey bees and bumble bees are killed off by yellow jackets too. The destructive yellow jackets will return to a hive of honey bees time and again killing the bees returning with the food until the hive is suffering and they die, that is an explanation in a nutshell. So protect the good and mild-hearted pollinators and encourage natural predator habits of the destructive.

You will have to let it thaw at room temperature first.

Why freeze honey in the first place? It will keep indefinitely in a sealed jar at room temperature. Freezing won't make it last any longer.
