The worker bees in the bee family

Laboring bees spend their entire short life in tireless and exceptionally useful work for humans. We can safely say that bees are deprived of childhood, because at the age of up to three days they already monitor the sanitary state of wax cells, cleaning the walls and bottoms of honeycomb cells after young bees emerge from them. From the fourth day of life, they feed the older larvae with a mixture of honey and flower pollen and begin to make orienteering flights near the hive. On the seventh day, the upper jugular glands of bees begin to function, secreting colostrum with which they feed the queen bees and the larvae of future queens. At the age of 12-18 days, bees develop wax glands and build honeycomb.
