Asian honey bee
The Asian honey bee is a honey-making bee that lives across South, Southeast and East Asia. Its colonies build nests with several combs inside cavities, and it is one of the bees people in the region meet most often. It is now also found in parts of Australia and the Pacific.1

Jinsi ya kumtambua
- Adults are black with four yellow stripes across the abdomen.1
- Workers have a pollen press on the hind leg and a stinger.1
- Queens are larger than workers.1
- Drones have larger eyes, no stinger and a blunter abdomen.1
- Medium-sized, about 10 to 11 mm long.1
Mara nyingi huchanganywa na: It is very similar to the western honey bee, Apis mellifera, in size, shape and behaviour, and both build multi-comb nests in cavities. The two are separate species: their colonies differ in size, with Asian honey bee colonies holding about 6,000 to 7,000 workers compared with up to 50,000 or more for the western honey bee, and the two species do not produce offspring when they mate.1

Ana hatari gani kwa watu?
Hatari kwa watu: InaumaInaweza kuuma sana, lakini karibu kamwe si jambo zito.Hufanya nini akiogopa?
Its nests have a small entrance that helps guard against invasion by other nests. When a Japanese giant hornet invades, about 500 Japanese honey bees surround it and vibrate their flight muscles until it is heated to death.1
Akidunga
- Kwangua mwiba wa nyuki na upoze mahali hapo.
- Mtu akipata shida ya kupumua, uso au koo likivimba, au akijisikia kuzimia, hiyo ni dharura ya mzio: piga namba ya dharura na umtumie kalamu yake ya adrenalini kama anayo.
Daima piga namba ya dharura kwanza (112, 000, 911). Huu ni mwongozo wa jumla wa huduma ya kwanza, si ushauri wa kitabibu. Misingi ya huduma ya kwanza
Kaa salama
- Kamwe usimguse, kumkamata wala kumchokoza mnyama wa porini, hata akiwa mdogo, na hata akionekana amelala au amekufa.
- Mpe nafasi. Ukikutana naye, tulia, rudi nyuma polepole na umwache aende zake.
- Akikudunga: tulia, usitikisike, piga namba yako ya dharura (112, 000, 911) au nenda hospitali haraka. Kumbuka alivyoonekana, picha husaidia.
Hakuwindi wewe. Hutumia sumu yake kukamata chakula au kujilinda, na hupendelea zaidi kujificha. Zaidi kuhusu kukaa salama

Ukweli
Japanese honey bees can heat an attacking giant hornet to 47 °C, which is hot enough to kill it, while keeping the temperature below their own lethal limit of 48 to 50 °C.1
Its nest temperature stays at about 33 to 35.5 °C, even when the outside air ranges from 12 to 36 °C.1
It stores about a third of its nectar in concentrated form to get through harsh winters.1
Its colonies usually hold 6,000 to 7,000 workers, far fewer than the western honey bee.1
Kuvunja dhana potofu
Dhana potofu: The Asian and western honey bees are simply two races of the same species.
Ukweli: They are two distinct species. Their colonies differ in size and they do not produce offspring when they mate.1
