Bright Shiny Bees
Q: What triggers the processes that prepare bees for winter?
Insects, including bees, use photoperiods, or changes in day length, as cues to initiate their preparations for winter, such as producing glycoproteins to prevent freezing.
About Bees Mailbox
Q: Can we extract honey that's not sealed?
It's better to avoid extracting unsealed honey, as it may have a higher moisture content and could ferment.
About Bees Mailbox
Q: Should I plant flowers for my honeybees? I own almost ten acres.
You should plant flowers for wild native bees, as honeybees will forage over larger distances.
