How do Bees Make Honey? (Lansing State Journal, July 30, 1997) Honeybees use nectar to make honey. Nectar is almost 80% water with some complex sugars. In fact, if you have ever pulled a honeysuckle blossom out of its stem, nectar is the clear liquid that drops from the end of the blossom. In North America, bees get nectar from flowers like clovers, dandelions, berry bushes and fruit tree blossoms. They use their long, tubelike tongues like straws to suck the nectar out of the flowers ...

Bees Apiidae Bees belong to the third largest insect order which also includes wasps and ants. Together, these creatures pollinate crops, turn over the soil more effectively than earthworms, and, in the case of the bee, furnish food in the form of honey. Even more importantly, some members of this order prey on other insects -- the single most important factor in keeping the earth's insect population in check. The bee's eyes, like those of other insects, diffe ...

Bees Ever wonder how a honey bee (Apis mellifera) hive "works"? Inside the hive functions a highly organized society with intricate divisions of labor. Most of the work is done by workers, or sterile female bees. The workers build the honeycomb of wax they generate from glands under their abdomens. They also raise the young, forage for pollen to feed the larvae and nectar to make honey, and protect the nest from predators. Work is age-related: the worker starts out as a cleaner and then passes through the roles of nurse, builder, guard, and, finally, forager.

BEES Every hive needs a queen. The queen bee mates with a male, called a drone. She then lays all the eggs. New hives are formed in summer, when a young queen leads lots of workers out of the old hive. Worker honeybees look after the young; and turn the nectar, into something that we call honey. A large hive can hold up to 50 000 bees. The parasitic bee looks like a blue fly. The parasitic bee looks like a bee, because the wings are exactly the same. It is actually a bee, as the name suggests. Back to Contents Page
