Honeybee Etiquette

Did you know that honeybees are one of the cleanest animals in the world?

They clean themselves, they clean each other, they clean the hive. If a mite gets in, they escort the mite out the door. If a wasp gets in, they gang up on it, sting it, kill it and push it out the door. If a strange bee gets in, they push it back out the door. If there’s even a glimmer of daylight coming in through a crack, they patch that crack so it’s completely dark.
