I am a beekeeper from Paraguay, and I have observed an attractive
behavior
of my bees africanizadas. I have distributed several drawers of bees in
my
patio, with the purpose of grabbing hives, all them separate among if
about
10 meters. If I spill some honey in one of the drawers to cause pillage,
in
some minutes will see the bees looking for this honey, but not alone in
the
drawer that I have spilled the honey, but in all them.
My conclusion is that the bees that have found the honey, can inform
their
partners, not alone the address and/or scent, but also that the honey is
in
an abandoned drawer.
