Bees exposed to fungicides more susceptible to pathogen Nosema ceranae
Most of the bees studied visited wild flowers for their pollen. This is a symptom of the overuse of chemicals or at the very least improper application and careless use.
First step is to identify the problem. Hopefully we are on our way. If this can be replicated and proven perhaps we can affect some change in the usage of these type of chemicals.
