They can be used to assess both abiotic factors (temperature, humidity, acidity, salinity, pollutant content, etc.) and biotic (viability of organisms, their populations and groups). Bioindication is based on observation of the composition and
number of living animals belonging to the indicator species. A living indicator is a bioindicator is a group of individuals of the same species or community, the presence, condition and behavior of which are judged by changes in the environment, including the presence and concentration of pollutants. Such indicators have a number of advantages: in the conditions of chronic anthropogenic influences they can react even to relatively weak interactions due to the cumulative effect; allow us to draw conclusions about the degree of harmfulness of any substance synthesized
by man, for wildlife and for herself; while giving the opportunity to control their influence and others. Under the global environmental changes, the use of bioindicators for the various ecosystems is gaining popularity. One of the most valuable bioindicators of the ecosystems health is the honey bee (Apis mellifera L), as a biological indicator it has important morphological, ecological and behavioral features.
