I think I caught some ZomBees


Stumbling-around bees is definitely not a good sign. 😓

Caught them in a jar and now wait to see if they hatch zombie flies. Ug. And I thought varroa mites were gross.

At least I get to be a bee scientist. 😔

Reading up on ZomBees, it seems as though this parasite is unlikely to wipe out my hives, at least. Fingers crossed that’s true.

ZomBees?  I think the fact that they let me catch them with tongs isn't a good sign, either. :-(
