Native bees and african bees aren’t generally fed corn syrup as part of their diet because they are “wild” and no bees pollinate genetically modified corn. Corn is wind pollinated.

Please, reread what I wrote. The bees are fed corn syrup made from GMO corn the corn has trace pesticide that affects the bees immune system. I also state this is possible not an absolute.

I also don’t appreciate your tone, you sound like you have some ax to grind. I’m not the person that you need to grind against.

So stop feeding the bees corn syrup---switch to cane sugar.

I read what you wrote. It all amounts to speculation. You have no valid evidence. So you're a bee-keeper. Wheres your scientifically validated PROOF of the above. Simply put, you have none.

"I also don’t appreciate your tone, you sound like you have some ax to grind. I’m not the person that you need to grind against."

I don't give a **** what you think about my "tone". I think your "theory" is baloney. I watched exactly this kind of malarkey being spread back during the first explosion of eco-nuttery about the Spanish moss down South. Back then, the moss was supposedly being "driven extinct" by "air pollution". Twenty years later, they found that the cause was a disease, and the moss had made a full recovery. I get tired of people who pass along eco-rumors as fact, when in reality, they HAVE no facts---just speculation.

This has happened OVER, and OVER, and OVER. The eco-scares have gotten too numerous to list any more.
