It's just covering up the pheromones that the bees release,' said Werner, showcasing the care he takes in handling his hives.Werner, who works out of his family farm in Germantown, Wisconsin, finds his profession rewarding.'You get to be outside.
The stat is one out of every three bites that you take is pollinated from bees,' he said.Beyond their role in agriculture, honey bees also help maintain biodiversity.'One of the things that I just love about bees is their cohesion as a unit, as a hive, that they work together, that they are focused on the greater good of the hive,' Werner said.It's important to note that honey bees are gentle insects, usually busy with their work and not prone to stinging.
