Absolutely - bees get drunk on alcohol, jittery on caffeine, and can get stoned - we've seen this in our testing of chemicals and bees for DoD. I've been amused by the articles that someone trained bees to work cannabis - no need to train, they'll 'happily' work it. Using the Proboscis Extension Response assay, we've tested Mary Jane - bees readily respond to it.
