- Bees require a temperature of 50 degrees Fahrenheit or higher to fly easily without using up all of their nectar stores. But they prefer it hot: 80-90 degrees.
- Bees sleeping outside the nest will sleep under a flowerhead or inside a deep flower like a squash blossom where the temperature can be up to 18 degrees warmer close to the nectar source.
- The bee asleep in the flower on a cool morning may be a female forager who got caught outside the nest when the temperature decreased rapidly. Her job is to forage for nectar and pollen and she stores it in (yellow) pollen baskets on her hind legs to take back to the nest.
- Or the sleeping bee may be a male. Most males leave the nest just a few days after hatching, and do not return. Their job is to drink nectar all day and chase queens for mating.
- The queen gets to choose whether to fertilize eggs or not. She mates with a male, and stores his sperm in something called the spermatheca over the winter.
- Bumble bees create honey, but it is not substantial enough for cultivation like honey bees. Do Bumble Bees Sting?
- Bumblebees are generally very docile, but they should still be given space and respect. According to BumbleBee.org, a bee will stick up a middle leg if it’s annoyed by your presence, which means “back off!”.
- Only the females will sting, and they may be more aggressive if you find yourself near their nest. Bumble bees can sting repeatedly and will not die afterwards, since their stingers are not barbed and won’t dislodge from the body.
- Like other wildlife, bumble bees have to work harder than ever to find food and shelter due to habitat loss and the overuse of pesticides. Bumble bees that are affected by pesticides are able to fly shorter distances, and therefore have less ability to forage for food.
- In the springtime, a queen emerges from solitary hibernation, and must conjure up the energy to find food (flower nectar), build a nest, forage for nectar and pollen, and lay eggs.
5 FACTS ABOUT BUMBLE BEES—AND HOW TO HELP THEM • THE ...
From blog.nwf.org
- Unlike most native bees, but like honey bees, bumble bees are social insects that live in colonies. The vast majority of our native bees are solitary and don’t form hives or have queens.
- Except for new queens, which hibernate during winter, bumble bee colonies die in late fall. Queens overwinter in small holes just beneath or on the ground’s surface, emerging in spring to create new colonies they begin by laying eggs.
- Bumble bees are important pollinators of our food plants. Bumble bees pollinate plants out in nature, helping to keep our ecosystems healthy, but they are also commercially valuable as pollinators of many crops.
- Bumble bees’ wings beat 130 or more times per second. That ability, combined with their large size, enables the bees to perform a unique service, “buzz pollination” (vibrating flowers until they release pollen), that helps plants produce more fruit.
- Bumble bees are in trouble. Several bumble bee species are rapidly declining and the status of others is unknown. The western bumble bee, the yellow banded bumble bee and the Franklin’s bumble bee have all vanished from large portions of their range and the rusty-patched bumble bee was recently listed as officially endangered.
10 THINGS YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT BUMBLEBEES | THE OLD ...
From almanac.com
- Are Bumblebees Good Pollinators? Yes! Bumblebees are excellent pollinators—much more efficient pollinators than honeybees, in fact. They mainly forage for pollen rather than nectar, and transfer more pollen to the pistils of the flowers with each visit.
- Which Flowers Attract Bumblebees? Bumblebees have to work harder than ever to find food and shelter due to habitat loss and the overuse of pesticides.
- How Do Bumblebees Fly? There are about 45 species of bumblebees (Bombus) in the United States alone. These large bees are round and fuzzy with short, stubby wings.
- Do Bumblebees Make Honey? Yes, but not enough to be a source for human consumption. Bumblebees make a small amount of honey, just enough to tide them over a few days of bad weather.
- Do Bumblebees Sting? Bumblebees rarely string, though they are able. They are generally very docile. They do not form swarms like other communal bees and they only sting when truly provoked.
- So, Are Bumblebees Friendly? We can't speak to human-bee friendships, but bumblebees are a naturally social bee, living together in groups called colonies.
- Where do Bumblebees Live? Bumblebees have small nests, between the size of a baseball and a softball. Unlike a honeybee hive, bumblebees usually nest close to the ground or even underground, in stone walls, under clumps of grass, or in hollow trees and stumps.
- Do Bumblebees Sleep? Yes, of course! Male bees will also sleep outside, after they leave the nest (never to return). Sometimes, it's the female who's caught outside the nest because the temperature cooled so rapidly that she couldn't fly back; she'll wait until morning to bring her pollen back to the nest.
- Bee Populations Are in Decline. Are Bumblebees in Trouble, Too? Yes. Many bumblebees are listed as endangered, vulnerable, or near threatened. Last year, the rusty patched bumblebee (Bombus affinis) was the first bee listed as an endangered species in the continental U.S., and it is thought to be extinct here in New Hampshire—the last recorded sighting of it being in 1993!
- How Do I Attract Bumblebees to My Yard? If you notice a lack of bees in your yard, consider whether your neighborhood uses a lot of pesticides in their lawns and gardens.
