Beeswax is a natural wax produced in the bee hive of honey bees of the genus Apis. It is mainly esters of fatty acids and various long chain alcohols. Typically, for a honey beekeeper, 10 pounds of honey yields 1 pound of wax.
The wax is formed by worker bees (the females), who secrete it from eight wax-producing mirror glands on the inner sides of the sternites (the ventral shield or plate of each segment of the body) on abdominal segments 4 to 7. The sizes of these wax glands depend on the age of the worker and after daily flights begin these glands gradually atrophy. The new wax scales are initially glass-clear and colorless (see illustration), becoming opaque after mastication by the worker bee. The wax of honeycomb is nearly white, but becomes progressively more yellow or brown by incorporation of pollen oils and propolis. The wax scales are about 3 millimetres (0.12 in) across and 0.1 millimetres (0.0039 in) thick, and about 1100 are required to make a gram of wax.
Honey bees use the beeswax to build honeycomb cells in which their young are raised and honey and pollen are stored. For the wax-making bees to secrete wax, the ambient temperature in the hive has to be 33 to 36 °C (91 to 97 °F). To produce their wax, bees must consume about eight times as much honey by mass. It is estimated that bees fly 150,000 miles, roughly six times around the earth, to yield one pound of beeswax (530,000 km/kg).

Why does she need him for a father?
Not only maidens can occupy my shack
Gluing my manhood towards a manhole
Like Pepe Le Pew would say, hey, hey, hey, we clash!
I got my diddly spayed, I got my diddly spayed
I got my diddly spayed, I got my diddly
She laughs about it
Shrinking inflections if the wind blows just right
Jacking themselves off polyester
I wanna jump, this isn't right, hey, when am I getting it back?
I got my diddly spayed, I got my diddly spayed
I got my diddly spayed, I got my diddly
I don't know why
I got a joke too silly to say
Don't touch the balls
I got a dick, dick, hear my fucking hate
I got my diddly spayed, I got my diddly spayed
I got my diddly spayed, I got my diddly
If you're wondering it's gaining monthly
Fiberglass insulated disguised as cotton candy
Spawning downstream, El Rancho Ovulate
Feeling can't help me romp
Bill just fuck me, take me anal
Billy's slit reminds me of someone
I'm sick of paying for the Love Boat
Toni and Tennille, Sonny, Bono, Charo
Had a nice set of lungs
I got my diddly spayed, I got my liberty
I got my diddly spayed, I got my diddly spayed
I got no house
Nowhere they fall
I got a hit, hit
Well, you can't live, I got my diddly spayed
I got my diddly spayed, I got my diddly spayed
I got my diddly spayed, I got my diddly spayed
