Universal remote codes are used to operate the devices attached to them. Universal TV remote control codes are unique to each hardware device and are listed in the manuals provided with the appliance. All companies have a different and unique universal remote code that identifies a remote control with the TV set. In case the remote of the TV has broken or is lost, a new remote control which uses the same universal remote control codes can be used.
Workers make up the majority of a honey bee colony. The lifespan for workers varies on the amount of work they do, based upon the wear and tear they put on their bodies. On average, the lifespan for workers is as follows: summer = 15-38 days, spring/fall = 30-60 days, winter = 100-140 days.
The honey bee, Apis mellifera (L.), is our most beneficial insect. We must do all we can to protect bee colonies which are pollinators for many of our home and commercially grown fruits and vegetables. The annual contribution of honey bees to food production in the United States is estimated to be $10 billion. Normally, honey bees favor a cavity entrance that faces southeast and is about 1.5 inches (38 mm) in diameter. 2  A mature honey bee colony can range in population size of 20,000 to 100,000 bees depending on the season. 3  The colony population will peak from late spring to summer and reach a low point in winter.
