Know how. Know now. Pollinators and Tubular Nesting Native Bees Paul C Hay University of Nebraska Lincoln Extension Educator

Background: Pollinators Honeybees pollinate $15 billion in crops/year (apples, cherries, berries, nuts etc.)* 75% of flowering plants need pollinators* Pollinators are in decline worldwide, best data are for honeybees: 31% loss of hives each year between in the US**. Commonly called "Colony Collapse Disorder" (CCD), appears to be due to multiple stressors (Varroa mites, Nosema and virus infection, moving hives, tobacco ringspot virus, pesticide exposure, etc) *Status of pollinators in North America, National Research Council **vanEngelsdorp et al. PLosOne: 3:1-6 e4071.
