They guessed that renting out hives to farmers for pollination was stressing out the bees.

So now that they’ve discovered a viral cause, then what’s the reason for the rented-out bees collapsing more than non-rented? Were there more than one hive on a truck while transporting them? It will be interesting to see what they come up with. I’d like a hive if we ever move out of our big city suburb.

I agree that it is a disgusting smell, although I do like microwave popcorn on the odd occasion (maybe once or twice a year).
