• Recruited foragers may waggle dance as well, increasing the recruitment for highly rewarding flower patches.

• In bees, knowledgeable workers perform a waggle dance to guide naive workers to an identified food source.

• The consumption of ethanol by foraging bees has been shown to reduce waggle dance activity and increase occurrence of the tremble dance.

• Honeybees use two kinds of dances to communicatethe round dance and the waggle dance.

• There are two main hypotheses to explain how foragers recruit other workers -- the waggle dance or dance language theory and the odor plume theory.
