They will go straight to the flowers and nectar, and return. Their range is up to 4km. Clementi Forest, which is near SUSS, would be one of their sources,” said Mr Chong.
“When took the bees out, I thought they would start swarming. But I realised they were quite gentle and stayed in their nest,” said Ms Lim. The manmade beehives on the SUSS rooftop farm.

Origin’s director Winston Baptista hopes that more clients will request that bees be relocated instead of killed.
