Honey
Honey contains about 200 different ingredients. Honey bees make honey from nectar or honeydew in order to be self-sufficient. The composition of honey varies depending on what kind it is and it can be liquid or crystalline. Honey has been used by humans since the Stone Age. Since the invention of sugar extraction from sugar beet or ...

...e, water and other sugars, pollen, minerals, proteins, enzymes, amino acids, vitamins and colour and flavour compounds. In Germany, honey is subject to the food law. There are two kinds of honey : blossom honey (from the nectar of flowers ) and honeydew honey (from the excreta of plant sucking insects, and from plants’ secretions. The following are examples of blossom honey: rape honey, acacia honey, dandelion honey, sunflower honey, heather honey, clover honey, chestnut honey and linden honey....

...creta of plant sucking insects, and from plants’ secretions. The following are examples of blossom honey: rape honey, acacia honey, dandelion honey, sunflower honey, heather honey, clover honey, chestnut honey and linden honey. Some examples of honeydew honey are: forest honey, pine honey and honey leaf. Honey can be divided into groups according to the extraction method?: From the procedure honey is won there is strained honey, sliced honey, comb honey, drained honey, pressed honey and stamped...

...ush off pollen remains. Pollen is transported to the hive in "baskets" made out of an arrangement of hairs, also located on the hind legs. Like all bees, the honey bee has mouth parts, which can lap up sweet plant secretions (nectar and honeydew). Nectar is transported in part of the stomach called the "honey stomach". Other bees on the same level in the hive are supplied with nectar by this bee.

Panorpidae (as all Scorpionflies) prefer shady areas in summer. They are often encountered in bushes and shrubs. They live on dead or injured insects and some species also eat nectar, fruit or the honeydew of aphids. Some also prey on insects trapped in spiders’ webs.

...with on their forelegs. The colour of the male and female Bibionidae is different, the male being black and the female being reddish brown to amber. In spring and autumn Bibionidae often swarm en masse. They do not sting and they feed on nectar or honeydew. They contribute to the pollination of fruit trees. The insects mate within the swarm, and the males of the Bibio marci for example can become very aggressive. While the Nematocera are generally good flyers, i. e. the Bibio hortulanus are sluggish ...

Green lacewings
...with green wing veins. Larvae are elongated and have small bumps on the chest and abdomen segments, or are plump and have long bristles on the sides of the body. Adult green lacewings fly at night and at dawn. They feed on pollen, nectar or honeydew. There are also species that are predatory. The latter are useful in agriculture as they eat insects, mites and aphids.

Chrysoperla camea s. l.
... They have compound eyes which glitter and are bright and clear. Some types turn brown before the winter. Chrysoperla camea s. l. reproduce several times a year. The adult insects are usually active at twilight and feed on pollen, nectar and honeydew from aphids. During the day they sit, hidden, under leaves. They overwinter in places where they are well hidden from other animals and insects. Their larvae are considered beneficial as they eat aphids (up to 10 per day) and aphids are viewed ...

Excretions of other insects (honeydew of lice), nectar, seeds, fruit or pollen, in addition to many parts of plants also form part of their diet. Driver ants prey on other insects and animals. Some species are scavengers and feed on the excreta of other insects. Others collect seeds, gr...

...d can be black or grey. They have a marking on their abdomens which resembles a chessboard and dark stripes, lengthwise on their chests. The mouth parts are designed to suck up liquids and they feed on nectar, resin from trees, rotting fruits and honeydew.

Blow-flies have a preference for strongly smelling organic substances. Their mouth parts form a proboscis with which they can lick. They feed on nectar, pollen, honeydew, fungi, carrion and food waste. Blow-flies usually lay their eggs (up to several hundred at one time) in strongly smelling organic substances such as feces or carrion. The excretions of the larvae can be problematic for humans. therefore mea...

Camponotus ligniperda prefer warm and dry habitats. They live in deciduous forests, mixed forests and grasslands with shrubs. They feed on honeydew from aphids and on the sweet and juicy parts of plants. They also prey on other creatures. The area in which these ants forage for food has a radius of about 40 metres.
