Colony Collapse - My Bees Are Gone!

This is what Colony Collapse Disorder looks like.
I noticed that there were not many bees pollinating my Secret Garden of Survival, even though there were blossoms everywhere.
When I looked into my bee yard, I could not see any bee activity coming in and out of the hives.
So I suited up, and went to go inspect what was inside the hives...
This what I found.
And this is what you can do about it.

Absconded possibly too, if the mite or beetle load was too great they would swarm away

I don't have bees (allergic to them actually) but my heart was breaking as you were going through your hives..... :(

A sad and foreboding tale.

[@pmlm1571]

Given the lack of dead bodies, I imagine they swarmed. Perhaps due to infestation or in one case, that mouse.

[@Diebulfrog79]

Could be mites or hive beetles and Colony collapse. wash everything. Are you using any Chinese frames or comb?

Well duh. Its not like you're paying them anything & no health benefit or pension? Why would they stay on this job? Slavery was ended years ago.
