Adapted from Reuters copy. Better quality, fewer lazy clichés :)
Bees can be trained to sniff out explosives using a process known as hymenoptera training. It takes about five hours to train a single bee.
However, using bees to detect explosives has proved unreliable because they actually sniff out the additives and are unable to detect explosives in their pure form.
