A 13 year old girl from San Jose, California has been a beekeeper for a few years now and noticed the behavior of some of the bees were… off. IN this episode we talk about this amazing young lady who has made a breakthrough discovery that helps a bees memory. Why is that important?

When bees are exposed to pesticides, it ruins or damages parts of their short term memory and their ability to collect pollen, so, they struggle with what their main function of life is and they have a hard time getting back to the hive. If this happens, it could lead to what is called colony collapse disorder.

We get into more detail as to how this young lady discovered this and the solution she has come up that is working!

We end the show with a little bonus for you… Fish Doorbell (ring responsibly)
