Bee Behavior
It is important to be able to identify bees properly, as they are often mistaken with wasps and each require their own unique treatment methods.
- Bees are usually hairy while wasps appear to have smooth bodies
- Bees have thicker bodies while wasps have a skinny section of their bodies
- Wasps hibernate during the winter but bees bees are still active, living off of food reserves and heat created by the worker bees
- Bees can only sting once and die after they sting. Wasps can sting multiple times and they do not die after stinging
- Bee colonies can be much larger than wasp colonies, with bee colonies becoming upwards of 75,000 bees and wasp colonies maxing out around 10,000 individuals
Honey bees make their nests from wax, secreted from their abdominal glands. When intruders (often humans) are near their nests, they defensively guard the entrance to the nest. When a bee stings something, they release pheromones that can cause other bees to attack as well.
