What Type of Meat Attracts Meat Bees the Most?

CSEF · 2013 Zoology

Kristen R. Schiavon · Fairmont Elementary School, Sanger, Fresno County

Overview

Objectives/Goals The objective is to determine what type of meat will attract meat bees the most. Methods/Materials To do this procedure you must find a large bottle and cut a large hole and two small holes in the bottle. Then take a stick and meat and put the stick through the meat. Then put the stick with the meat in the bottle. Then put the trap out over a period of time and repeat and record what meat caught the most meat bees. Results In the end, my results were fish will catch 108 to 54 more meat bees than any other meat. Conclusions/Discussion The reason the piece of fish attracted more meat bees is because meat bees are attracted to smell and meat (protein).
