There are three types of bees living in a beehive: the worker bees, the queen bee and the male bees. In the colony, the work is divided in such a way that each caste is specialized in its activities. The worker bees are infertile female and represent the most numerous caste in the beehive. Their main activities are cleaning the beehive cells, ventilate the beehive, cap the beehive cells containing the bee eggs, feed the larvae, gather pollen and defend the colony. The queen bee ensures the renewal of the bee colony. The male bees represent the infertilized eggs. Their main activity is the reproductive function with the queen bee outside of the beehive.
