    1. Pyrethrum in plants can repel bees, and the method of smoking (carbon dioxide) can also repel bees.

    2. Pyrethroids contain pyrethroids, which have significant effects on the peripheral nervous system, central nervous system and sensory organs of bees. When bees come into contact with pyrethroid, they will have repellent effects, poisoning, and knocking down.

    Method: Prepare 100 grams of dried pyrethrum, boil one liter of water, then put in chamomile flowers, simmer for half an hour, let stand at room temperature, and then spray for use.

    3. The antennae of bees are both tactile and olfactory. It contains plate-shaped receptors, jar-shaped receptors, and cavity-cone receptors. Among them, the altar receptor responds to carbon dioxide, and some cavity cone receptors can sense temperature and carbon dioxide concentration.

    High concentrations of carbon dioxide can paralyze bees, and the use of smoke methods can repel bees.

    Method: Ignite with a pampas stick and mugwort to produce smoke to repel bees.

    Bees don't like the smell of gasoline.

    The bee is most afraid of foam because its wings will fall off once they get into the foam because they are too heavy.

    I'm afraid you don't believe it. Here's an example for you. In a highway car accident in the United States, the bee truck overturned, and 8 million bees poured out in an instant, and the driver escaped because of the gasoline on his body.

    You can dip some gasoline in your hands and wrap that honeycomb in a bag, preferably. The bag is also soaked in gasoline beforehand. You just want to get rid of the bees, don't hurt them with fire or water. I hope my advice can help you.

    Ancient humans mostly used smoke and fire to hunt bees, in the hunting process, those bees who were slow to respond to fireworks were slowly eliminated because they were burned to death, and those who were sensitive to fireworks reacted, especially the bees that immediately ate honey and fled when they encountered fireworks, were retained, and over time the bees formed a stress reaction of fear of fireworks, and beekeepers used smoke to collect bee colonies in tree holes and stone caves.

    Bees love the sweet smell of the human body.

    Attract the scent of bees:

    1. Beeswax smell: beeswax is secreted by the beeswax gland of the appropriate age worker and has a natural attraction to bees, in fact, the most used in trapping wild bee colonies is also beeswax, and most of the bees lured by beeswax are scout bees looking for new nest sites, and these scout bees will return to the nest and lead the bee colony to build a nest if they are satisfied with the hive environment.

    2. Honey taste: The smell of honey has a strong attraction to bees, but most of the bees attracted by honey are scout bees who go out of the nest to find the source of honey, and these scout bees will lead a large number of worker bees from the hive to collect, so that a large number of worker bees may enter and leave the hive during the day, and at night these worker bees will all fly back to the original hive.

    3. Sugar taste: The smell of white sugar also has a strong attraction to bees, but the detection bees that are lured by sugar and honey are basically scout bees who come out of the nest to find the source of honey, and these scout bees will lead a large number of collection bees to collect white sugar after returning to the hive, that is to say, it is actually difficult to lure wild bee colonies to settle down with white sugar alone.

    Exchange of information. Use sound and light to transmit information. The so-called sound is the sound of a bee flapping its wings. For example, the sound of the queen bee's wings vibrating is called "singing", and "singing" is transmitted through the nest spleen, because the queen bee's vibrating wings are driven by the vibration of the pectoral muscles.

    Another example, the scout bee flying out of the "whirring" sound, has the effect of "dispatching troops", once a new queen bee is produced, it will inevitably divide the bees, then the scout bee bee makes this sound, will guide the swarm to fly to the new nest.

    Bees are not interested in the normal body odor of the human body. But there are situations where honey will come (provoke) you. For example, the shampoo you use to wash your hair, I do this at home, so there is no way that my father keeps bees and basically does not use shampoo, or the bees may come and sting you.

    I don't know exactly why, maybe there is some kind of smell or substance in the shampoo that bees mistake for some kind of pollen.

    I think there will be a lot of similar situations, as long as you use relevant skincare products or something. Bees will"Loved it"You've got it.

    Bees are afraid of the smell of smoke and will run. Therefore, traditional beekeeping will first use sun-dried wormwood (also known as mugwort, fragrant wormwood, etc.) to ignite the bees to drive the bees away from the hive spleen, and then use the honey cutter to cut the honey, but this method is very harmful to the bees, purely belongs to the act of killing chickens and taking eggs, and is slowly eliminated after the introduction of live frame beekeeping technology.

    Bees will produce a stress response when disturbed by smoke, at this time all members will suck honey and prepare to fly away, if the smoke is too large, the bees will be smoked to death, using this characteristic beekeepers invented a smoke blower, the smoke blower is composed of a blower device and a combustion furnace, mostly used in the case of capturing wild bees, worker bees around the king, bee colony fights, etc., when using in the combustion furnace to ignite smoke fuel (linen, shavings, sawdust, etc.), press the switch to spray smoke.

    In ancient times, bee groups and honey, pollen, etc. were the hunting objects of ancient humans, and ancient humans mostly used smoke and fire to hunt bees, in the hunting process, those bees that reacted slowly to fireworks were slowly eliminated because they were burned to death, and those bees who were sensitive to fireworks reactions, especially those who ate honey and fled when they encountered fireworks, were retained, and over time bees formed a stress reaction of fear of smoke.
