Flying insects such as bees may accumulate a small positive electric charge as they fly. In one experiment, the mean electric charge of 50 bees was measured to be ++(30 ±± 5) pCpC per bee. Researchers also observed the electrical properties of a plant consisting of a flower atop a long stem. The charge on the stem was measured as a positively charged bee approached, landed, and flew away. Plants are normally electrically neutral, so the measured net electric charge on the stem was zero when the bee was very far away. As the bee approached the flower, a small net positive charge was detected in the stem, even before the bee landed. Once the bee landed, the whole plant became positively charged, and this positive charge remained on the plant after the bee flew away. By creating artificial flowers with various charge values, experimenters found that bees can distinguish between charged and uncharged flowers and may use the positive electric charge left by a previous bee as a cue…

Several species of bacteria, including Geobacter metallireducens, have been shown to "eat" electrons, bypassing the usual process of metabolizing sugar to obtain energy. During this process, the bacteria, which already have negatively charged cell membranes, acquire an even larger net negative charge, typically between 10.0e and 85.0e in magnitude. Individual Geobacter are typically 4.00 µm in diameter.
