Mushroom extracts are reversing the effects of Deformed Wing Virus.
DWV is a RNA virus transmitted to bees which shortens the lifespan of the workers and causes developmental abnormalities in honey bees including deformed wings as seen below.
Reishi & Amadou Mushroom extracts are reversing the effects of Deformed Wing Virus.
It is apparent that extracts from Fungi have powerful anti-viral properties reversing the effects of the Deformed Wing Virus affecting Honey Bees.
Bees fed extracts from polypore mycelium exhibit reversed DWV effects.
Varroa Destructor Mite.
The varroa destructor transmits a RNA virus into bee hives which causes DWV.
It is essential that we find solutions to slow down colony collapse amongst honey bees. Our food relies on honey bees for pollination.
Over 30% of our food is directly pollinated by honey bees...
