Beekeepers use smoke. It doesn't make the bees sleepy, but it does calm them.
Originally bees were a woodland insect, living in holes in trees. When they sensed smoke it meant only one thing: forest fire. Their reaction was to gorge themselves with honey and be ready to fly off to find a new home if it became necessary. When a beekeeper puffs a little smoke into the hive, the ancient instinct kicks in and the bees gorge on honey. The result is the bees are calmer and more docile, and less able to bend the abdomen down to use their sting. Probably rather like we feel after a heavy meal.
Honey bees have tiny branched hairs that make them appear fuzzy, but they are not as prominent as in some other bees. The hairs on honey bees help with collecting pollen and regulating body temperature, but they are not as thick or dense as in other bee species.
It varies, but typically honey bees can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to make honey. The process involves collecting nectar from flowers, bringing it back to the hive, evaporating excess moisture from the nectar, and sealing it in honeycomb cells. Bees need to process and dehydrate the nectar to ensure it becomes honey.
Bees make honey in ALL countries.
It is the worker bees that make the honey.
No, honey bees typically make hives above ground in structures like trees, caves, or man-made beehives. Ground-dwelling bees like mining bees or sweat bees may create nests underground, but honey bees do not.
Bees make honey by collecting nectar from flowers and then processing it in their bodies. The end product is a thick, sweet liquid that we know as honey.

Honey bees assist with pollination i.e they carry pollen from one plant to another, while collecting nectar, which is crucial to growing crops. They eventually use the nectar to make honey.
Bumblebees eat nectar and pollen made by flowers. The sugary nectar provides the bees with energy while the pollen provides them with protein, according to The Bumblebee Conservation Trust. They make honey by chewing the pollen and mixing it with their saliva, according to Animal Diversity Web (ADW).
Bees make honey by collecting nectar from flowers and processing it in their stomachs. The enzymes in the bees' stomachs break down the complex sugars in the nectar into simpler sugars like glucose and fructose, resulting in the sweet taste of honey.
Bees Make Honey was created in 1971.

No, honey bees are insects that produce honey as a food source. Honey bees collect nectar from flowers and use it to make honey, which they store in their hives as a source of energy. Honey bees are not made out of honey.
Bees make honey in ALL countries.
Bees make royal honey by cross pollination.
Bees make the honey, and stores sell it.
