Honeybee Communities Collapsing

I've been hearing about this on TV etc, but I read in detail about it only now. Scary situation:

Beekeepers throughout the United States have been losing between 50 and 90 percent of their honeybees over the past six months, perplexing scientists, driving honey prices higher and threatening fruit and vegetable production.

Hahah. Funny etlamatey. Are they resident bees going to go to congress to press for laws against immigration of new bees?

I had heard this on NPR few weeks ago. Here is the recording of the program.
 
Oh boy!
