We've been getting calls about severe bee losses in Florida, Georgia, and
other southern states. I went to our sponsors and got a one time pass to fly
down with my team and our technologies, see if we can get any fix on what's
going on.
We will be sampling beeyards/hives, taking chemical samples, recording
sounds, making inspections, and referencing affected sites to location and weather.
I'm sending Scott Debnam to Georgia -- its his home state: while I'm flying
to Florida. We want to visit with beekeepers, bee inspectors, sample select
yards. Jerry Hayes is helping us coordinate our visits to Florida. We're
still working on contacts in Georgia.
If you've had severe losses -- we're talking commercial operations that
reportedly have lost thousands of colonies, we'd like to hear from you --- see if
we can orchestrate a visit.
We hope to be down next week.
Best Regards
Jerry
