Wild Attitude! Apiaries, Farm, & Exotics
Apitherapy Products from the Hive
Honeybee venom has been used for centuries by various cultures to treat many medical diseases and disorders.
Bee Venom Therapy is achieved via direct stings from live honey bees into the specific affected area. Due to current laws, we cannot administer BVT, instead we can only sell you live bees for your own use. Due to the seasonality of beekeeping, live bees are only available from March to October.
Pricing for bees is $2.00 each (container and shipping costs are extra).
Pollen collected by honey bees is utilized as a medicinal treatment and as a protien
source. Locally collected pollen is purported to help with the affects of allergies when taken orally in a capsule or by direct ingestion. As a food it can be added to smoothies, granola recipes, cereals etc.
Pollen is collected at the entrance of the hive and is then stored in a frozen state to ensure the best preservation. Pollen stored in a frozen state retains its potency for up to a year.
We are not selling pollen at this time, check back in 2024.
Propolis is a substance created by honey bees as a means to secure their hive; as a
sealant for cracks/minor holes and as a method of securing any loose structures (think
of the frames inside a man-made hive). This substance is made from resinous excretions
from plants and beeswax. Propolis has been shown to have very strong anti-bacterial,
anti-microbial, anti-fungal and anti-viral properties. Propolis may also have anti-cancer
compounds and may help with free radical particles.
Propolis is gathered from the hives during the honey extraction and general cleaning
processes. The raw propolis is then stored in the freezer or is ground into a powder
and then stored in the freezer.
Pricing - Raw propolis - $6.00 per ounce; Powdered Propolis - $10.00 per ounce (currently sold out)
Beeswax is used in many types of cosmetic preparations
including our own lotions, lip balms, balms and soaps. Beeswax
can also be used as a vehicle for the administration of some medicines since beeswax
readily absorbs most pharmaceuticals (think suppositories). Beeswax can also be used
for candles, artwork polishes, varnishes etc. Our beeswax is processed only from cappings and
is therefore of a higher quality and lighter color than most processed and store bought wax; it is available in 4 sizes:
1oz - $2.00 4oz - $8.00 8oz - $16.00 16oz - $32.00 (currently sold out)
* The health benefit claims of apitherapy products have not been thoroughly researched and further, these claims have not been evaluated by the FDA. It should also be noted that Wild Attitude! Apiaries is not a medical facility and makes no pretense of substituting these services for sound medical services provided by a licensed physician. Care should be taken by all persons engaging in alternative care concepts to seek medical advice prior to starting such a regime.
