PROPOLIS , also known as "bee glue," is a resinous mixture that honeybees produce by mixing beeswax with saliva and other bee secretions, then combining it with collected plant resins, waxes, and pollen. Bees use it to seal cracks and openings in their hives, strengthening the combs, and providing a protective barrier against bacteria, fungi, and other invaders. #honeybees | King Bee PH

Giving the stingless bees some propolis/bees wax. The bees don't eat the propolis, they use it to build everything in their hive. As we head into winter, here in Australia, I like to help the bees a little because there are less flowers around for them to harvest from.
