HORTICULTURE

Detailed explanation-1: -Most beekeepers wear special clothing to protect themselves from bee stings while they work. They should always wear a hat and veil to avoid stings around the face and eyes, but they can also wear special pants, plus a jacket and gloves.

Detailed explanation-2: -A veil or netting is worn over the head to protect the face from the attacks of bees while removing honey from a hive or working about it. It is worn over the hat and tucked under the coat, or drawn over a light metal frame which covers the head and rests on the shoulders.

Detailed explanation-3: -The bee veil only protects the face and the neck, whereas the bee suit protects the whole body. Both the veil and the suit can be made with locally available material such as a maize flower bag. It is important that the used material is strong and bees cannot easily sting through the material.

Detailed explanation-4: -Today’s beekeepers wear a three-part protective outfit: a hooded veil, a full-body overall, and gloves. The current beekeeping suit, like apiarist attire in the past, is meant to block bees from accessing your skin without restriction.
