If there is indeed an odor/gas  involved(perhaps due to some "brew" of  
pollen mixes w/fermentation etc) couldnt it be checked somehow by examining 
 
the air in the brood chamber of a freshly collapsed hive...maybe this could 
 
give some hints.
 
We did exactly that, plus sampled bees themselves.  Found over 500  
volatile and semi-volatile chemicals - may be one of them is the culprit, but  hard 
to sort out.
