I'm sure this a great improvement , for the bees as well as for the bee keepers . Now if they could only figure out what's killing the bees , and how to stop it .

There's major regions that are losing bees...but bees are doing well in others.
We need them for Dicot flower pollination,, but not monocot (grains) so many grain growers use pesticides that are harmful to bees...so huge swaths of the mid-west - where grains are growing...are devoid of bees...which hurts the flowering crops (peas, beans, etc).
It's a tough and scary issue. These houses wouldn't do well in areas where grain farms are abundant.
I had considered getting one of those, but I realized I'd need to fence my yard to keep neighbor kids out, and I don't have a big yard, and my yard is very sloped. So looks like I am going to keep buying my honey instead of being a beekeeper. Sigh.

The system can be had for anywhere from $300 to $800 for the original inventor's model. It's a bit confusing what's included and what's not....lots - perhaps too many - options.

I've seen these before. I'm sharing it with my daughter in law, who's super-health conscientious.

Posted by KateOahuI saw some pretty flowers on a walk today. I’d never seen a white Hibiscus before. And I do not know what the pink flowers are.
