I hear this all the time and have to point out that we have no real
controls for a real-time comparison.
Some of us remember much stronger summer hives and better wintering, but
so many factors have changed -- cultivars, farming methods, climate,
treatments, bee pests and diseases -- that I don't think we can really
know exactly what is happening.
>> in some situations they obviously can cope.
Cope, yes. Thrive, not so much, but it is not just one thing IMO. I'm
sure the neonics are not helping except by perhaps displacing something
worse.
