Question

HOW CAN HONEY BE USED IF HONEY BEES ARE DISAPEARING?

Answer 1

Although honey is a delicious bi-product created by bees, I don't think honey is the main issue with the disappearance of them. Bees make honey by taking the pollen from flowers. When bees travel from flower to flower collecting pollen, they also transfer the pollen from plant to plant which impregnates the plants as well. This is mainly how we all get fruit and vegetables! If there's no bees to do this, the production of produce becomes less and less, creating a shortage of food. I think that is the main concern with the disappearance of bees.

Answer 2

i herd that their gonna bring the bees from africa out here  =(  

Answer 3

are you that Bee I saw on that cartoon the other day?.... hahaha

well the honey bees are NOT disappearing where I live (SaudiArabia) we have bees all over the place here.. Perodically we get little wild bees making hives out in my yard anywhere they please.. one even started up in my A/c compressor thingy on my house... We had to move them.. I hate exterminating them.. I usually try to coax them away... The pest man usually tries to catch the queen and smoke the other bees away then cleaning up the honey/wax mess there and then relocating her somewhere else in the wild...

Americans? yeah, i'm pretty sure that North America has the problem because most of us kill the insects themselves or build on all the land they used to get their food from. There aren't as many open spaces for them to get pollen anymore, or as many as their used to be.Thus the numbers go down. We can still get honey to eat because bee's are farmed just like any other poor animal that can be used by us. There are intense farms where plants harbor many beehives and produce honey to sell. It's a business. This does not help the bee population here and the bee's are treated very poorly. Hope it helped, but I'm not sure about any other parts of the world, or if that's even what your asking, sorry.

Answer 5

Where is your proof is this?  

Answer 6

the honey is controlled by honey farmers. they set up the hives and harvest the honey.

Answer 7

They haven't all gone yet and tis is also a prediction not a fact

Answer 8

You are correct, they are disappearing, in North America anyway. I have not seen ANY honeybees this year! That is very very strange since I normally start seeing them when I think it is way too cold for them and then they increase in numbers from there. I saw someone at a fair that is the American Honey Queen and asked her where the bees are since I haven't seen ANY this year. She looked a bit startled-intense-idon'tknowwhat and told everyone that bees are disappearing from Colony Collapse Disease, and they don't know yet what is causing it. The bees just all disappear for no apparent reason.

Bees are farmed like other things by professional beekeepers and they sell the honey they get. They HAVE to take good care of their bees because they are actually wild animals, not domesticated. If bees are uncomfortable they do not stay, they fly away, there is nothing you can do to stop them. You can go try to find them and put them in a new hive but they still don't have to stay. And the bees in the wild are all gone in my area. So, the only bees you are likely to see are those that belong to a beekeeper.
