Hi folks,
I?ve never really given it much thought but a bee has an amazing sense of smell. I notice it all the time but generally just dismiss it. When ever I warm honey, I give it a stir on a regular basis to mix the crystallised honey through. Every time I open a bucket of honey to perform this task, bees come buzzing around to investigate within seconds of the lid being removed. If I melt down wax in the shed, I can hear bees as soon as the wax starts to melt. I suppose this sense of smell is vital to help them to source nectar supplies for the hive.
