Carolyn asks Howard:
   Did you have any different smells on you between
beeyards?

Smells can certainly get a response from bees. Good & bad.

I have never heard or read about bees reaction to sounds but my partner says
every time the big roll up door goes up here come the bees from the home
yard searching for a free meal when the honey flow is not on.

Do bees react to sound when the reward is perhaps honey from a stored honey
super OR is the answer perhaps one I suggest that the odor from the supers
on the wind brings the bees and not the sound?

Comments?

Bob
