I built a couple of bat boxes. They sit empty.
The sky used to be thick with bats at dusk. All gone.
You used to be able to hear an audible humming from the garden, filled with busy honey bees doing their thing. All gone.

there's better data for a disease-related cause.

Meh....Cell phones CAN BE CAUSING the disease, like cancer or something else. Cell phone towers and all these micro-wave emitting devices have never been properly tested. There has never been a 20-50 year study of the long-term health risks of these things. WE are the guinea pigs and the tests are ongoing as we speak. WE ARE THE TEST SUBJECTS!

Have you ever started a thread where you weren't looking for a fight? Your BS grew old a very long time ago, give it a rest. You have never won an argument and never convinced anyone to change sides,,,
If you aren't being paid for being a mouthpiece for the communist party, you're wasting your time and energy..

So, although no one has or is suggesting that a count of wild hives be undertaken, it is logical to assume that there are not enough wild hives to pollinate the vast farm fields we have today.
