Thats a BS tie in to Bill Gates. He is a son-of-a-bitch but they just threw his name in there without any logical association.

I am a bee keeper. Fowldbrood isnt as much of a worry as the varroa mite. Gates better stay the hell out of the bee world. Its screwed up enough already.

I was being sarcastic WRT the effects of a vaccine for bees mimicking the human results from the clot shots.

Everyone has known for years that a lot of bees have been dying for unknown reasons.

Oh Yeah, thanks for sneaking it in there.
Colony Collapse Disorder is a real thing as well.
Its more than just wanting to keep a few bees in a box, fer sher.

My worst foe so far has been the wax moth. Another critter that loves bee wax and can more than decimate a healthy hive in short order. Thank God above there are no small hive beetles here. I keep robber screens on year round. Building a couple of mating nucs for spring. Trying to get hold of the genetics for my apiary in a mono-crop wasteland for bees that my area is in. Kansas farmland has been sprayed with Round-up for the last 40 years at least. Nothing grows that is not planted for profit, bees dont eat corn, wheat, milo or soy beans and they spray heavily to kill any “weeds” that may crop up. Gotta have a creek close by or there just isnt enough food for them.

I have a very hot hive I need to tame. Of course its mite resistant and very, very, very, very defensive, and it swarmed last spring so I actually have 2 hot ones to tame as the bees that stayed in the original hive is they are her genetic daughter.

The company that has the patent on this will make millions on selling Queen bees. The Fauchi of Apiary science. We are so screwed.
