for the bee population. Starting at six days old, young bees start to feed younger larvae in their hive. The adult bees do other tasks such as scavenging for the other honeybees. In a hive, there is no simple hierarchy, unlike human beings who have business hierarchies for large businesses. Each bee does something to benefit another bee. The queen may be valuable, because there is only one in each hive, but the queen does not rule the hive. Worker bees send orders by signaling to the queen bee…

Wasps make up an enormously diverse array of insects, with some 30,000 identified species. We are most familiar with those that are wrapped in bright warning colors—ones that buzz angrily about in groups and threaten us with painful stings. But most wasps are actually solitary, non-stinging varieties. And all do far more good for humans by controlling pest insect populations than harm. Wasps are distinguishable from bees by their pointed lower abdomens and the narrow "waist," called a petiole,…
