Bzzzz Bombs

I've seen somewhere that they are training bees to detect explosives by feeding them sugar that has been laced with the explosive they want the bees to look for. The only trouble as far as I can see with this is that the bees are then going to be turned into miniature flying bombs and will devastate your garden if they explode when flitting about in the roses or even worse - there you are ambling along in the supermarket looking at jams and other spreadable goodies for your morning toast when the honey goes poof! and showers you in stickiness and glass fragments. Clearly the scientists haven't thought this through properly - if you're going to have insects which are likely to go bang at the drop of a metaphorical hat at least use ones which are considered to be less useful - like greenfly.
Meanwhile Herr Doktor von Squeakenstein has seized on this idea and is currently trying to train bees to seek out turnip brandy and I have to say there's some very drunken buzzing coming from the castle hives at the moment....
