Since then, new clues have developed. For example, Hackenberg was one of the first to call attention to this colony collapse. From a source long since forgotten:

Mr. Hackenberg, the beekeeper, agreed to take his empty bee boxes and other equipment to Food Technology Service, a company in Mulberry, Fla., that uses gamma rays to kill bacteria on medical equipment and some fruits. In early results, the irradiated bee boxes seem to have shown a return to health for colonies repopulated with Australian bees.

Previous discussion was Bee's disappearing that began 7 Apr 2007.
