Seriously... bastards.

No, not really. Honey bees are usually pretty chill and if they land on you, they're just curious. If they keep running into you, then you know its time to run.

My dad started it. He's big into stuff like that and so I learned it from him. No, its more of a hobby/pass time. I only have a couple hives so far so its nothing like a business. Just small production. Wasp are literally the worst thing ever. First they don't do any benefit for humans. Second, the like honey so they constantly try and get into the hives, and then the bees have to go to war to keep them out. They just suck.

Its pretty sweet how it works! Bees go out to plants and collect nectar (typically from flowers), they then fly back to their hive and worker bees there suck the nectar out of their stomachs and chew it for about 30 minutes. During this process the sugars are broken down. They then store the broken down nectar in combs and fan the produce with their wings, during this process the water is evaporated and we get honey.

kinda cool but nasty at the same time.
