bees. silicon valley is taking side and arming the bees. this week on "press here." good morning. i'm scott mcgrew. 2020 has been pretty tough so far. if there's anything that kind of went a little right, it's that the murder hornets never showed difficult. even bees deal with coronavirus, they do have to deal with sudden colony collapse. ironically, they have to deal with hornets. this is video of hornets kidnapping bees. it's fascinating video recorded by a palo alto company called bee hero which has developed sensors to watch for incoming hornets. they have made radar for bees. now for the record, these are asian giant hornets, not murder hornets. but i don't think the poor bee cares one way or another. we'll show you more video later. i promise. we'll get to the ceo and cofounder of bee hero. a man forever stuck happily on the bee team. i have so many questions. let's go with the fact that bees are very important to farms. farmers actually bring bees in to the farms and the bee keepers

, but don't hurt the bees themselves. it's a micro ecosystem that has been eradicated in conventional beekeeping. complex schiffer says beekeepers should welcome how pseudo scorpions into their hives, all in all these live better lives in less or log hives. antonio also makes log hives that are suited to hopping beekeeping. the bottom section is home to various tiny creatures such as the household pseudo scorpion. the middle section is where the bees build their honeycomb and store their honey and the upper story conserve the beekeeper as a honey super where some extra honey for humans to harvest accumulates. there are new frames inside the bees build their homes as they see fit. to draw our lets you check for viral mites and the door provides access so that you can harvest between up to 7 or 8 kilos of honey a year, but no more. and the mason is 3. this is, i'm with you and it's about keeping bees in a way that's good for them. and not about honey. still in, the beekeeper can look forward to harvesting a little without h

they say bees like the round shape and feel safe up there. yarmulke learn from the being we have learned to see with the eyes of a being used. this is not about honey your on your other proverbs. it's about having resilient be one resistant vehemence who shot from that means honey bees that can fight off parasites and diseases. an alarming number of managed colonies die prematurely. girlie actually became a beekeeper in 2012, but soon became dissatisfied with standard modern methods. he learned about honey hunting, a practice common in the middle ages that involved making nests by cutting holes in tree trunks. he decided to adopt and update the technique. he found that bees did much better in such nests than in standard artificial hives. the question is, why standard box hives have been in use for a century and a half. they can be stacked and the at habitants of each one yield up to 50 kilograms of money. but other bees happy. another experiment is underway in the botanical garden in frankfurt. train hives have been installed here too, and th

honey bees, natural habitat is in woodland, just wild honey bees. out in the woods, look for cavities and trees. they're often created by woodpeckers are for naturally, what we've done is create an artificial tree trunk. it's the perfect home, the bees look for. he might avoid all beenish out. they want to find out if there are any wild beast in these woods. and if they will take a liking to the new home they're being offered. naturally occurring tree cavities are becoming ever rarer in managed commercial forests. trees with holes don't last long. they've attached their log hives 6 metres up the trunk of an oak tree. they say bees like the round shape and feel safe up there. and we have learnt to see with the eyes of a bee, this is not about honey or any other product, this trip. it's about having resilient be resistant vina to show off. and that means honey bees that can fight off parasites and diseases. an alarming number of managed colonies die prematurely girlie actually became a beekeeper in 2012, but soon became dissatisfied with standard mode

, but don't hurt the bees themselves. it's a micro ecosystem that has been eradicated in conventional beekeeping. in complex schiffer says beekeepers should welcome how pseudo scorpions into their hives. all in all these live better lives in nests or log hives. until you also makes log hives that are suited to hopping beekeeping. the bottom section is home to various tiny creatures such as the household pseudo scorpion. the middle section is where the bees build their honeycomb and store their honey and the upper story conserve the beekeeper as a honey super where some extra honey for humans to harvest accumulates. there are new frames inside the bees build their homes as they see fit. in the drawer lets you check for very well might see the door provides access so that you can harvest between up to 7 or 8 kilos of honey a year. but no more. and this is it's about keeping bees in a way that's good for them. and not about honey. still, the beekeeper can look forward to harvesting a little without harming the bees, you know

so how are the bees doing in this tree hive? regular check ups are part of the experiment i found of a row of vero mites. are the biggest parasitic threat to honeybees. this is what gives, it shell has been bitten and sure enough, a look under the microscope confirms the bees evidently fight back and into the viral mite. you don't see that kind of behavior in box hives. if you didn't hear these can defend themselves. they need time spare capacity to do so, but if they're always in a panic about maintaining supplies, they can't fight off the mites. because in the tree hives the bees share their home with a natural ally, the house pseudo scorpion, torben. schiffer is a great fan of climates, but one of these tiny scorpions have long maintained. a symbiotic relationship would be nice to eat everything that can harm the beings, but don't hurt the bees themselves. it's a micro ecosystem that has been eradicated in conventional beekeeping. complex schiffer says beekeepers should welcome how pseudo scorpions into their hives. all in al

got a lot of bees. on their own i mean whatever you're going after their water to lend them and from callers there's going to. leave as one of the few people who breeds bees according to the old tradition he was the bee hives much like his ancestors but instead off in the walls of the house the bees now live in the garden . every flowering plant needs to be pollinated here hives like this the pollination of the plugs not back. later we can also harvest honey because of. the materials that uses to build the highways are from the region using local products makes the hives both affordable and via mentally friendly their appearance is reminiscent of the traditional him archly quarter just. in the past i only used to be used to produce honey i was satisfied with whatever little money i earn from it when i started taking courses i learned about the significant growth of the claim pollination especially here in the market forces like the one school leaver commodity ended on offer. and in conjunction with the

modern bee hives on his farm. the bees go in search of food in the fields around his village in northeastern rwanda. families here and across the country are using more and more pesticides on their crops. these potato plants are no exception. at the same time, the populations are collapsing, farmers are aware that these things are connected. a large number of bees die when the i was betrayed or plants are in bloom. whenever blaze land on the flowers after we've sprayed them, we see them dry. pesticides are toxic and kill many forms of life that are not the intended target. when they feast on, b. keep has suffered, the economic consequences are the 1st. we would like the government to support farmers to get chemicals that are not toxic. that way they can continue farming without causing us to lose our bees, which is designed, you can security, but a shift to organic farming is still a long way off here. biological pesticides are rarely used, in part because they're expensive. the government is considering raising t

they eat everything that can harm the bees, but don't hurt the bees themselves. it's a micro ecosystem that has been eradicated in conventional beekeeping. complex schiffer says beekeepers should welcome how pseudo scorpions into their hives. all in all these live better lives in nests or log hives until you are also makes log hives that are suited to hopping beekeeping. the bottom section is home to various tiny creatures such as the household pseudo scorpion. the middle section is where the bees build their honeycomb and store their honey and the upper story conserve the beekeeper as a honey super. where some extra honey for humans to harvest accumulates. there are no frames inside the bees build their homes as they see fit. the drawer lets you check for viral mites and the door provides access that you can harvest between up to 7 or 8 kilos of honey a year, but no more. and this is i'm with you and it's about keeping bees in a way that's good for them. and not about honey, still in, the beekeeper can look forward to harvesting a little without harming the bees

help of his institution's own bee colonies. insects tested already reacted to tiny amounts of negative charge at feeding stations researchers had set up to simulate flowers rich in nectar. the sensory biologists can even listen into the communication between flower and be. its. various. they connect a flower to an extremely sensitive measuring device the loudspeaker then translates the electrical charge into sound. so you can kind of consider a magic wand i guess. it's just simply a plastic world and you know when you rub your head with a balloon and you get all this electric charge building off and on and that's essentially what we do with this so you can rub it on your hat and you get a lot of electric charge building up and this is a charge that would be similar to the charge you get from a bumblebee that's flying around so we can use this is a nice sort of mimic for bumblebee flying around the. depending on the distance of the wand the sound becomes louder or softer. the devices have now been checked now it's the bumblebees

but other bees happy. another experiment is underway in the botanical garden, in frankfort tree hives have been installed here too, and they are equipped with a range of sensors. the actual and rollers are collaborating with top in shifa, a biologist, and the expert. he's found that these round wooden hives offer bees a stable and pleasant climate. by contrast, the temperature in box nests varies a lot, and moisture can accumulate in the corners of the park like and you believe this, i've been for a colony has to work 20000000 hours more just to maintain the right temperature. or if we average it out, because there are 3 times as many bees in a hive as in the nest, that's still 7000000 hours, extra work time in which they can do what bees naturally do. and if they're always carrying nectar and fermenting honey, they can't get on with grooming. and that's a lot of extra stress for beings, and it's not good for them. another problem schiffer has identified is that box times are too big, often 4 or more times

then the bees have to feed the eggs. to 2 or 3 weeks the new breed hatches. we're glad we getting this training now we can be sure the air is going to be more bee colonies. because we can look forward to having more beehives and that will guarantee increased honey production. for the co-operative has already managed to make up a large part of its losses. here or do we have to see more since this new technique was introduced that it is good our business had to clear and. we had lost a large number of colonies only had $120.00 beehives left out of a total of $400.00 disagreeing. but since then we've managed to add $200.00 hives that's a great success story over a short period of time going to. this training program has been running since 2015 and at no cost to be contained is the government once every beekeeper in the country to take the courses thanks to the program honey production has been rising again and so has the price of honey up $5.00 fold in recent years to about 6 heroes a kilo in part because the bee population has shrunk. despite. all the advances

bee.he winner of each individual bee will compete in a final, head-to-head competition to declare the ultimate winner of tonight's event. yearrs of the press, this you have the opportunity to earn extra points for your team. don't worry, we flow give the politicians the same chance when it is their turn. three rounds tonight, with the theme "fake news."

so where does that leave the bees the german government has a so-called action plan for the protection of insects but even the environment minister concedes that it's not enough. the state of nature here in germany is not satisfactory there are many areas where more needs to be done and the situation is slightly improved with beach forests bird cities and forests but it's still dire when you look at the german. cultural landscape. the consensus is that more needs to be done to protect bees and other insects but consensus alone will not save them. for nearly a month now muslims around the world have been observing ramadan the holy time off osting and prayer it's traditionally a time of community and a chance together with friends and family but this year that's been complicated by widespread locked on regulations on the extra forces from here in berlin where christians have offered muslims a unique place to pray during the pandemic. oh. the call to prayer from inside the church of saint martha in berlin every friday throughout ramadan. the hotter than the top but. we see ramadan as a ve
