The Benefits of Urban Beekeeping
•Posted on August 24 2012

Bees that miss out on a balanced diet can also become more susceptible to parasites, such as the varroa mite, or colony collapse disorder, which is believed to be caused by a combination of fungal and viral infections.
Such threats mean the honeybee could potentially have a better chance of survival in urban environments.
Thanks to the variety of plants and flowers grown by city dwellers in their back gardens, and the beautiful green spaces in many cities, city living potentially provides a rich and varied source of pollen that gives bees all the nutrients and enzymes they require for their good health.
Bees that live in the city may also benefit from new kinds of beehive designs that have been created specifically for urban bees.
