蜇伤吃：植物

The tree bumblebee is a bumblebee that lives across much of Europe and northern Asia. It has spread to Great Britain, Ireland and Iceland since the start of the twenty-first century. It often nests near people and can reach flowers in places many other bees do not.1

It often lives near human settlements and prefers to nest above ground, including in bird boxes. It likes forests but favours human dwellings where there are fewer trees, and it nests in holes and walls in trees. It avoids areas with a lot of rapeseed.1

它吃什么？

It visits a very wide range of flowering plants, including rhododendron, cherry, grape hyacinth, blueberry, raspberry and bramble. It has a strong preference for hawthorn and blackthorn flowers compared with other bumblebees. It stores pollen in separate cells and feeds each larva individually.1

它害怕时会做什么？

If disturbed, it can defend its nest proactively and may sting.1

If it stings

刮掉蜜蜂的蜇针，冷敷患处。
如果这个人呼吸困难、脸或喉咙肿胀，或感觉要晕倒，这是过敏急症：拨打急救电话，如果他们有肾上腺素笔就使用。

一定先拨打你的急救电话（112、000、911）。这里是一般急救指导，不是医疗建议。急救基础

注意安全

永远不要摸、抓或逗弄野生动物，即使是很小的，即使它看起来在睡觉或已经死了。
给它留出空间。如果遇到它，保持冷静，慢慢后退，让它走自己的路。
If one stings you: stay calm, keep still, call your emergency number (112, 000, 911) or get to a hospital fast. Remember what it looked like, a photo helps.

它不是冲着你来的。它用毒液捕猎或保护自己，而且它更愿意躲起来。更多安全知识

事实

Queens can mate with more than one male, which is unusual for bumblebees, and a female may mate up to 6 times.1

Because of multiple mating, sisters in a colony may have different fathers.1

The species has a symbiotic relationship with phoretic mites, which it carries around and which probably feed on mushrooms or nest parasites.1

Within a colony, a worker's sister is about 75% genetically related to her, while a brother is about 25% related.1

The first British sighting was on 17 July 2001 near the village of Landford in Wiltshire.1

A nest can hold 150 workers or more, and some authorities say up to 400.1
