IN the NEWS - Prince of Persia Targeting Bees Now?

Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth... Luke 21:26

 

"The new virus variant is spread by varroa mites or “varroa destructors”, a devastating pest which feeds on the hemolymph (blood) of the Western honey bee population. The mites invade honeybee hives and can eat honey bee pupa as well as spread viruses. 

A newly discovered variant of the Deformed Wing Virus (DWV) is threatening to wipe out the global bee population. “The Deformed Wing Virus is arguably the biggest threat to honey bees right now.

Our lab research has shown that the new, highly contagious variant is killing bees faster,” says Dr. Robert Paxton. DWV is responsible for causing severe damage to a bee’s wing before eventually killing them. 

The new variant is being spread by varroa mites, a common honey bee pest......bees are a vital part of the planet— responsible for 80% of all pollination globally— they are the farmers who help support and grow fruits, nuts, and vegetables within 70/100 top human food crops that are responsible for 90% of the world’s nutrition."
