Fuck bees

Wasps & hornets suck. We're starting up two honeybee hives this spring. Yum, honey! (and garden pollination)

hopefully they stick around. in your opinion, how bad is the problem of colony collapse disorder?

Its terrible! I've been setting boxes of toothpicks out next to hives so that they can create stronger cross members.

I'm not very well educated on the problem (my wife is the primary beekeeper in the family), but I'd say it's a big enough problem that when you combine it with everything else (mites, really cold winter, etc), it is definitely a big deal. Mites and winter can be dealt with, but something that still has unknown causes is the challenge.
