Beekeepers and researchers are collaborating to build a better honeybee
Colony Collapse Disorder in honey bees has been in the news for years. But a lesser-known, and equally serious, problem also threatens honey bee populations: a pest called the Varroa mite that kills bees and weakens hives. Researchers and backyard beekeepers are teaming up to create a honeybee built to fight off the Varroa mite.
