I have 2 hives at my home. Yesterday evening (5:45) I came home with several
supers of honey in the bed of my truck. At 7:30 there were a bunch of bees
around the truck (of course!). I moved my truck several yards late last
night in hopes I would be able to leave for work this morning with few hitch
hikers. At 7:15 this morning there was a BUNCH of bees where my truck was. A
few had found where I had moved my truck.
My question is this: When a source of nectar/pollen is removed, do the bees
tell the rest of the hive NOT to go there or do the bees just have to find
out on their own?
