Functions:
Propolis is now believedto:
- Reinforce the structuralstability of the hive
- Reduce vibration
- Make the hive more defensible bysealing alternate entrances
- Prevent diseases and parasitesfrom entering the hive, and to inhibit bacterial growth
- Prevent putrefaction within thehive. Bees usually carry waste out of and away from the hive.However if a small lizard or mouse, for example, finds its way intothe hive and dies there, bees may be unable to carry it out throughthe hive entrance. In that case, they would attempt instead to sealthe carcass in propolis, essentially mummifying it and making itodorless and harmless.
