Propolis is one of the most valuable bee products. It is a natural gummy product collected from the buds of conifers and used by honeybees to fill cracks in their hives. It is a sticky mass that is dark green or brown in colour, with a pleasant flavor of poplar buds, honey, wax and vanilla but it can also be bitter in taste.
The word "Pro-polis" originated from Greek, "PRO" meaning "in defence of" and "POLIS" meaning "town". So, "PROPOLIS" is a defence wall to the bee's town. It is applied by the bees as a protective layer for the beehives, as the naturally occurring antibiotic helps to protect the beehives from harmful bacteria. Indeed, when unexpected guests come to the hives – insects, snails, lizards, mice etc., to rob honey, then the bees, after having killed them would cover them with Propolis. The corpse so covered are transformed into mummies and would never decay. And it is also because of its strong antiseptic and antibacterial properties, Propolis ensures a clean environment for the bees.
