Bee-keeping is a wonderful hobby. We have been doing it for the last 25 years. The bees increase the yield in our coconut trees, they yield honey and they are a pleasure to watch working. They do not attack you unless they perceive a threat to the colony. Bee stings have therapeutic value in alleviating joint pains. Bees' honey is a medicine, preservative, wound dressing etc..
