@@blitzcank9482 When folks talk about bee sting allergies, they aren't talking about a bit of inflammation and maybe a rash. Dangerous allergic reactions can include symptoms such as excessive swelling and reduced blood pressure, among others. Read up on anaphylaxis if you really want to get a better understanding of how much the body can stop working when the immune system stops working.

[@Caedus696]

@@blitzcank9482 Its not a hard concept, some people are allergic to bee venom with extreme swelling of the stung area, some severe enough that they can go into anaphylactic shock and death. Everyone is not allergic to bee stings, the pain and light swelling is just from the venom itself.

1:37 "the males, most of them have died by now, after matting.." 🤔 lesson to be learnt!

[@ComradeCorvus]

There are two kinds of bees: -Adorable, fluffy, friend-shaped ones like these sand castle building lads. -The hyper aggressive, evolutionarily flawed, blood craving psychopaths known as Carpenter Bees. I HIGHLY prefer the former over the latter. I am trying to recover from what is essentially PTSD: Bee edition because one of those carpenter bees chased me all the way up the street when I was younger. The only thing holding me back from going into conservation as a career is my fear of those carpenter bees. Anyone have any suggestions on how to finally overcome this fear?

[@mako3951]

Apparently, male carpenter bees have a tendency to fly at people and animals because they are territorial, but male carpenter bees do not have stingers. So if one tries to chase you off, it is probably a male that is physically incapable of harming you in any way shape or form. Hope that helps with your fear.

[@ComradeCorvus]

@@mako3951 i found that out after the incident, and despite knowing that, something deeper in my mind tells me to panic.

[@breadgirl9806]

I have Cleveland Sage planted in my front yard. When it flowers the Carpenter bees love it. They are so happy about the nectar that they have no interest in me even when I am pruning it. Maybe get a plant that attracts Carpenter bees and slowly watch them from a distance until you get comfortable enough to get closer. Just maybe place them in a spot that you don’t have to get to close to see them at first.

[@raraavis7782]

Exposure therapy. Works very reliably, no matter, what you're afraid of. You may need the help of a professional though - it can be hard to pull off by yourself.

[@starfydusty]

As someone with a lifelong phobia of bees and wasps, I've found that watching beekeeping channels really helps! Specifically ones that do removals of hives that show up in inconvenient places. I used to scream whenever ANYTHING buzzed by my head because my fear was so bad, and now I'm comfortable watching bees on my garden plants while I sit next to them. My only issue is those wasps, still. If I see one, I still freeze up. Best of luck to you, though!

[@in-sean-mnia2118]

At 3:31 you can actually see the sand absorb the water comming out of the proboscis from the bee. There's something about that that's just really cool and interesting.

I have a question... where do adult male bees live? I assume they come out of their holes once they're grown but do they just mate and die quickly without getting a chance to collect pollen or whatever without needing a permanent place to live?

[@curry19921110]

Usually males hatch before the females and waiting on them for mating. Males do not collect pollen also they are not able too! They feed only on nectar and usually sleep at night with their mouthparts clinging to plants.
