Will it hurt my Honey Bee's or Bubble Bee's

This item is just paper and wire, no harmful chemicals, so "no", it won't hurt the beneficial insects.

Nope! Doesn't hurt them and doesn't deter them. We still have bees buzzing around our flowers - right under the product hanging on our porch. Both our fruit trees got pollinated and produced fruit.

I believe so ...but if you read further on ..you will find out that this product kills bee's ... which I am not willing to do ... so I don't use it anymore .. Thanks Terry

I've used 2 Flies Be Gone traps so far and have not seen any dragon flies or bees in them. (and I would stop using it if it killed bees!!!) I don't think the smell that it emits would attract a bee.

I am guessing you do not really mean honey bees and such. You probably mean like hornets and wasps and such. I am not sure. I did find one dead below mine so if it ventures in, it will get zapped. I guess the answer depends on what you want it to do to the stinging insects. To keep them from making nests all outside your house, well, it is not so expensive that I think you could try it. It will kill them if they fly in, I just don't know if it will attract them or not. It attracts the most insects at night, and some during the day.

I have not had any bees or wasps in this one at all. Sometimes, if the sugar water is spilled on the top, you might see one licking the top of it but they cannot get into it at all. Just keep it clean and you shouldn't have any problems.

Hi Chris,Sorry for the delay in writing. I'm embarrassed to tell you I do not know because I bought it as a display for a lesson I was given that tied into honey bees. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Drione dust would only help if you are able to apply directly to the holes the bees have bored. It will then kill the adults coming in and out of the holes, then when the larvae hatch, it will kill them when they come out of the hole

No! the bees are safe and you may catch some bird feathers as they try to feed on the insect population. They usually free themselves after some struggle.

Not unless they are on top of each other. It uses a short burst of vacuumed air from compressing the chamber. One bug at a time and ideally ones which are not moving as the top is small and narrow. You won't be emptying out a bee hive with it.

No, it would not work in honey. As a beekeeper, I can tell you that honey does not harden because it gets dry. Honey actually crystallizes because of the natural minerals and pollen contained in it. Honey never (yes, NEVER) goes bad-- you simply need to warm it up in a low temp oven, a pot of warm water (placing the jar in the water, not the honey), or in the microwave. I personally like it crystallized-- it's easier to spread on toast and spoon into hot tea! :)

Probably not. The guard tips allow only a thin beak from a humming bird or Bullock's Oriole (several feed from it) to reach the nectar. Without the tips, the opening is large enough to let a bee access it.

I don't know. I had ordered bee guards with mine but honestly I didn't even try them as I didn't need them. All you need to do to keep the bees away, and believe me I had hundreds on my old feeders, is make sure you don't drip the sugar water on the outside. If you do, simply take a little bit of water and rinse it off. I really love these feeders.

My best guess is that it wouldn't harm bees since it's not generally toxic, but you'd have to get a more expert opinion.

I would think so just remember low heat over double boiler,beeswax is flammable and will give a bad burn if too hot.

From my experience croc and gator have a slickness to them that might not let the honey penetrate but you can always try a very small amount at an end.

I would think so, because the mesh is very fine, however, I can't be absolutely sure since we are relatively bee free.

It depends on the bug.The wings of the fruit flies and other small bugs will zap off. However, if you're careful and only zap them once they should be ok. imagine fifty thousand volts running through your body he will most likely explode. Same for the small bugs. The big bugs zap them once and they'll go into shock thereafter you can pick them up. Hope this helps.
