I remember our cars being covered in bugs in the summer, not anymore. I can't imagine how much fewer insect species we have now. It's a shame and fully our fault.
Mr Rainmaker here I remember driving over the Mississippi River or getting close to the Mississippi River and there was so many bugs you couldn't even see out of the windshield so many bugs not anymore I drive down the road I'm lucky to have a splatter on my own on my headlight in the summer I live by Lake Michigan we ain't seen really much it's kind of sad
@ I've always lived in the country and one of my favorite things to do as a kid in the 80's was sitting outside by the light at night and investigate all the bugs. This is not something my kids can do. The light only seems to attract a few small insects and a couple moth's here and there. It's sad how fast we're losing our biodiversity.
I live in Canada and I remember when I was a kid whenever you went for a drive in the summer the windshield and headlights of your vehicle would be covered with dead bugs,and if you rode a motorcycle you always kept your mouth shut tight,nowadays you hardly get any bugs hitting your windshield.It's really quite scary,there is alot less birds around as well.
I too live in Canada. I can remember when, as a young kid in the 60's living in the country area, you would see hundreds of monarch butterflies and bumble bees every summer. Today, seeing a monarch butterfly or bumble bee is more like finding hen's teeth. And don't even get me started on snow. No more winters like it was back then either. No one around here owns a snowmobile anymore. Things have been changing for quite a while now and it isn't good. FYI, I am 66.
Theres this Vox article that came out 2023 that states that domesticated honey bers arent in any much danger at all. Rather its the wild bees that are the concern.
That is not true at all. I am a beekeeper and we are being devastated. Varroa mites, diseases, Colony collapse disorder. We as a population in the US have lost over 4 million hives since the 1930's. Honeybees are definitely in danger. Wild bees do not forage the same plants honeybees do, majority of the time. Most other bee species are specialized pollinators. They pollinate flowers most other insects cannot and have filled their niche.
@@mariadracona Hopefully this will give you some piece of mind about future beekeeping. I am part of a 4 man team that are creating "verroa mite" guards for a very common beehive in europe. We have currently created a tunnel camera that can detect mites with a 97.4 % accuracy, so its not perfect.. But it will hopefully help.. And we are currently working on a system to quarantine the infected bees!
There was a big question over the impact of genetically modified crops and their impact on butterflies and bees. I haven't seen any updates on that research. But you have land clearing for developments, open cut mines, bug zappers, pesticides and herbicides. So many gardeners and farmers obsessively spray for every insect pest. Probably going back to growing mixed crops, and crop rotation would be more environmentally sustainable. A lot of people who do have gardens only have lawns. Air pollution, water pollution, assorted environmental pollutions are all going to impact insect populations. The flow on of course is that insects form part of a food chain. Disappearing insect numbers directly impacts a number of other species.
Even Schmickl's first sentence is already false. Not all plants are pollinated by animals. There are many plants that are pollinated by the wind, like wheat, corn and all their relatives like grass and reed, also all of the conifers (pines, spruces, etc), trees like oaks, willows, chestnuts, grapes, etc. Bees do not think when they attack, all is instinctual for them. And besides stepping on them or stealing their honey, there are many more situations when bees attack you. For example: they are startled by your smell (deodorant, sweat, chemicals) or a sudden movement, a vibration, or they can be in a bad mood because of an unfavorable weather, or they feel in danger because you crushed some of them and they feel the smell of their crushed sisters. Many things that they research is completely unnecessary, like 3D printed or mycelium-based or heated hives. It would be more efficient ways to spend their money, for example, if they researched varroa-resistant bees.
@@ChristopherHorton-b5r The A. m. scutellata are the African honey bees. The big problem with them is that they are extremely wild, defensive, and sting like hell. But, with careful hybridization and selection, the scientists should be able to develop a race that is both docile and varroa-resistant.
Honeybees are nectar gatherers, mainly, and not pollen gatherers, like native North American bees. Pollinating was going on just fine, for 1000s of years, before the Italian bees were imported. That pollination would crash without the imported, non-indigenes bees, is preposterous.
Just was going to say honey bees are not native to North America and plants managed just fine here, has a colony of bee also been referred to as a swam? I thought swarming was an action of a bee colony. So much information missing from this that's misleading
@@AlexZaboroskiagriculture in general and the food crops we grow have only been around in their current form for around 10,000 years. Ask avocado growers in California if they think the honeybees they bring in for pollination are not worth the many thousands of dollars they spend on them yearly.
@@AlexZaboroski the pollination from bees isn’t so important for native plants. It’s more for farm production. Many farmers have bees brought in for pollination. It’s big business. Lots of beekeepers offer pollination services
Honeybees are not the only bees in the world, they are in fact a VERY SMALL portion of pollinators. Want to help bees? STOP DESTROYING NATURAL SPACES. It’s that easy but people want to make high tech hives…
Also lets stop with the whole acid treatment. Short term gains to save weak bees has long term conquences. Honeybees have lasted centuries, yet somehow since the 80's it became a problem.
@@Vermino You are unaware of the varroa mite. Varroa came from Europe in the late 80s and wreaked havoc on bees that had no defense. Look up what varroas intro the Australia had done. In all colonies , feral and managed, they are a problem and will kill a hive if left unmanaged. Oxcalic and formic acids are found throughout nature and in bee hives. If you don't keep bees, listen instead of spreading misinformation. If you do keep bees, for goddess sake, join a club and learn.
No one is saying Apis Mellifera is the only bee but managed colonies account for pollination of almonds, fruits etc that human kind has foolishly monocropped. THAT is the problem and the use of pesticide on ALL crops bees forage and bee adjacent. The use of pesticides is decimating native insects. Full.Stop. Teck hives will help all bees if they are used in monocropped areas .
Check out Mike Palmer's work with "resource hives". He designs his resource hives to share a central wall between hive colonies to improve winter survival. Only 1 aspect of what Mike seems to have learned and now passing along to others.
Try vibrational flowers tuned to the honeybees' worker pheromone production. It might make them make more pheromones, which might make them want to pollinate more.
Such as? Though Paul Stamets has shown toxins shorten their lifespan and some mycellium sources helps them live longer (the bees can forage in mulch for that). Flowers that are not pollinated have electrostatic signals to signal to pollinators like bees if they have nectar and have been pollinated or been pollinated. Diversity of organic matter in the soils and diversity of flowers around us is essential. We aren't so smart to get it right all the time. Often too late we realise that we didn't know all the factors. Eg Varroa mite, small hive beetles etc. There are many factors we are still studying and might not know everything we need to do to better manage bee hives we manage for honey, wax etc. Create plant diversity and avoid agricultural toxins, even avoiding unbalanced fertilisers that are damaging the ecology and habitat we share. Even leaving leaves around plants for certain insects that need to breed in.
I'm at work preparing my garden with as many plants rich in pollen for bees and butterflies as possible. I hope to make a small contribution to help these wonderful creatures.
@@Patrick-o6rBees see in a different light spectrum So any Flowers that are blue or purple they love And sunflowers are a pollen powerhouse for Many insects and the seeds feed birds. Happy planting.
Great show my bees have just all died small hive Beatles but the effects on thegarden is now being to show no polenation looks like potatoes and self polenanating plants are the go
while more plants may be pollinated by honey bees, mason bees are way, way more effective at pollinating- as honey bees can only carry pollen on their legs, while mason bees carry pollen all over their bodies.. please get some carpenter bees (or regional equivalence) for your backyard.. they are also less aggressive anbd super easy to care for(just no honey but that makes them way easier as well)
Bees sense the electromagnetic field of flowers which changes when a bee drinks the nectar, so they know which flowers to skip. How can you introduce anything electrical to such sensitive creatures and not know that your results are going to be skewed? Tnx for trying.
Fascinating and wonderful to see! Thank you!! Between such mixtures of nature and technology, and of course letting our back yards be alive and diverse with many flowing plants, we actually start to live the principles of permaculture!
Randy Oliver is a bee biologist. Look his name up. 2 things going on in bees health. Diet and mite loads. Get mite loads down, beloew 1% and your bees should come out of winter. Bees need high nutritional diet. Protein is important. Sure your right not a whole lot of insects these days. High tech bee hive wont solve the bee death when mite loads are high that is proven cause of colony collapse. Weak hive high mite load stressed sick colony. Low mite load is stronger colony healthy thrieving. Its not about the hive conditions
Honey bees are not in crisis. Solitary bee population is in crisis. A solitary bee can pollinate at a rate of 125 to 1. A solitary bee hive is easy to make and is the critical component for human survival no one looks at. Buy a solitary bee hive. Beautiful little creatures. Study provides understanding. Study solitary bees. I am a bee keeper.
Varroa mites are the biggest problem when it comes to bee survival in the united states, nothing else even comes close. A huge part of the problem is the number of beekeepers that refuse to treat for mites and it causes a lot of problems for others by spreading disease. The whole mushroom hive thing seems completely impractical.
I respectfully disagree. The problem all along has been trying to "treat" mites to mitigate their impact on hives. But breeding resistant bees is the answer. I requeened my entire apiary with VSH Italians a decade ago. Zero treatments or measures taken yet my colonies have an extremely small mite load. This stock is the result of decades of breeding by the USDA and commercial beekeepers. And I'm absolutely bewildered that so few beekeepers know of this line???
@mikerevendale4810 Theres no place to reliably buy them nor is trying to breed for that any guarantee. Its not that people dont know about it. Its insane to to think everyone wouldnt be using mite resistant bees if it were a viable option.

@@kevinogden4363 Theres not near enough people doing it and theres no standard for it. Small scale success is easily diminished by the vast majority of bees being feral/non resistant. Im not saying it isnt a good thing but until theres a large scale combined effort nothing will get done.

Wildflower Meadows Apiary out of California is one of two commercial queen breeders who are carrying on the decades of work by the U.S.D.A. breeding mite resistant honeybees; and their website openly states that their stock doesn't require "treatments". What's exciting is that the resistant trait is dominant! I closed my home apiary to new stock years ago and have been breeding my own queens which all have displayed the VSH trait. And that's not all: this stock is seemingly immune from brood diseases, is gentle; and they're excellent foragers. Management of this stock reminds me of the days before mites arrived. The only difference is that I lose around one in five colonies over winter. And my old bee journals tell me that my winter losses were one in ten, if that, before mites. I can't blame your skepticism; I live in a state of constant amazement that the beekeeping community is still going the route of dangerous chemicals when the answer is right before them. I've often wondered if corporate interests have been actively suppressing the truth?
But Honey bees arent at danger Wildbees are the ones in danger. They are responcible of pollinating 50% of plans as said in the beginning of the video, but honey bees can't replace their place, because a lot of plants aren't pollanated by honey bees at all...
Yep, your studies have clearly shown that there is no global warming. Such intricate and extensive studies have been ignored at the expense of the profit margins of many an oligarch. Unacceptable.
If climate change is bullshit, explain why I still have green leaves on my mulberry trees, in mid december? Normal, 30 years ago, was bare in October. Mountains which were always snowy, arent now. Plant and animal behaviors have drastically shifted. Weather patterns as well have become erratic. Temperatures are higher, oceans hotter with devastating consequences. Whether you believe Mans role in this or not, it simply blows me away that people can deny that change is happening, and that we as humans can moderate that change to minimize its impact upon us.
Remember to plant pollinator attracting native plants in any space you can. Every bit counts.
