A new study from India presents data that may explain why the bee population is dying off: cell phones! Bee experts think that the cell phone radiation may be effecting bee's ability to navigate, therefore inhibiting their ability to go back to their beehives. Researchers hooked up bee hives to cell phones twice a day for 15 minutes, and found that after three months, bees stopped producing honey, egg production fell by a half, and the size of the hive dwindled.
Not all hope is lost though. Scientists do suspect that if the frequency on cell phones was changed, it could help. Read more about how cell phones affect bees!

Unfortunately, cellphones are on the rise. Even children now have access to cell phones these days. In the end, I hope it doesn't affect the bee population too much. My mom has MS and she uses honey bees for a treatment. It works very well for her and I would not like to see her with out her honey bees.
There are articles I enjoy reading and those that are so boring that I simply cannot stand reading them. This article kept me interested and engaged from beginning to end. glass dining table
This is quite surprising thing for me. But after your short explanation, I can see that this is explainable. Perhaps the signal of cell phone that makes bees off.
