  24. In my opinion, commercial beekeepers are a large part of the problem.
    Bees were meant to eat their nutricious honey, but the commercial guys take ALL the honey and instead feed them corn syrup and other junk which leads to the bees having a poor and unhealthy diet, this then leads to the bees being very vunerable to virus and diseases. Trucking the bees thousands of miles also leads to tremendous stress for the bees.
