Stumble ThisA short viral on what you should know about bees, though, its not really trying that hard to sell you a product as it is trying to provide you invaluable information.
also, you could get some free flower seeds that produce flowers which bees love!

First, the way bees are kept, creates tremendous stress on the insects. Its been found to lower their immune system responses dramatically.
Second, a virus thats been spreading in plague proportions, that makes the bees somehow lose their ability to navigate back to the hive (I didnt read much into how they came to that conclusion), that without the stress and lowered imune responses, wouldnt normally pose any real threat to the bees.
Work is underway to find a cure for the virus....but being that its a virus, and not a bacterium, its not exactly easy to kill.
