"If the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe then man would only have four years of life left.
No more bees, no more pollination, no more plants, no more animals, no more man."

UNAF, 1994.



Apis mellifera, the most efficient and widespread honey producing species, is particularly affected by the mite Varroa destructor. This pathogen is actually the second cause of death for european bees. Indeed, according to beekeepers, up to 50 % of the swarms are lost every year, partly because of these parasites, causing tremendous economic damages to beekeepers.
