Frequently asked Questions:Is there a danger of people being stung using a bee based system?Honeybees are restrained within individual holders throughout their sniffing duty, which are designed to prevent stings. During use they are held within a "black box" detector and so there is no contact at all with the bees.Are the bees harmed by the process?Bees are unharmed during their sniffing tasks and are comfortable throughout - only healthy bees work effectively. After their working shift the bees are returned to their hive where they live out the rest of their lives and are integrated back into the colony.Why can't I see the demonstration video in the technology section?We apologise for this problem. The video demonstration does not currently work on all systems and we are working to find a solution to rectify this. |
