There are around 16,000 species of bees. Only seven of these are responsible for creating the world's sweetest treat — honey. Forty percent of the world's food supply is entirely dependent on pollination by honeybees. - Millet (1,299 - down another 100 days)

And now they have a Varomite infestation. We grow lots of queen bees for export here on the Big island. This will no doubt create a problem for the beekeepers here. We had the only infestation on this Island Quarantined but it looks like its spreading now.

Whats next green tree snakes?
