Have you ever noticed your bees standing at the hive entrance with their little bums in the air, wings buzzing away? 🧐 What you’re seeing is called “fanning their Nasonov gland.” This tiny gland, found at the tip of a worker bee’s abdomen, releases a special scent — kind of like lemongrass — that helps guide other bees home. Why they do it: 🐝To help foraging bees find their way back to the hive. 🐝To signal to the colony during a swarm, saying “This is our new home!” 🐝To mark important spots

🏠 🐝 On a chilly November day, it is risky to go out, but the bees need to make cleansing flights when the sun is shining. This fanning bee took up her position at the hive entrance, and fanned her Nasonov pheromone out into the surrounding area to help the others make it home safely. It was good to see this one get home safely.#honeybee #home #bee #beekeeping #honey #beehive #beesofinstagram #homeiswheremyhiveis | Home is where my Hive is

Shaking a swarm onto the ground right in front of a hive box is the fastest, most effective way to spot the queen—sometimes, I even glimpse her in the bucket! 👀✨ While it might look intense, bees are totally fine! If they were stressed or injured, they'd release a defence pheromone and start stinging—but when done right, that never happens. 💨🚫 As soon as they hit the ground, the swarm instantly starts fanning Nasanov pheromone, signaling their location to stick together. That’s why I never us
