| Description |
Writing from Wolaita Soddo in Ethiopia, Alemseged Mengesha asks 'Is there something secret? One morning I was called away from my breakfast and I left half a cup of tea on the table. When I came back after an hour, the glass was full of dead honeybees. I was going to drop them in the garbage but a passing farmer advised me to leave on the ash of firewood. I got some ash and left them on it. After just 45 minutes about 80% of the bees became alive and went away. I write to share my experience, to encourage local knowledge and to ask you the secret behind this. Is it because of the absorption character of the ash or something else.'
