In this episode, Jim delves into the complex and ancient relationship between honey bees and wax moths. Moving beyond the typical beekeeper concerns, Jim explores how these two species have coexisted for millions of years, engaging in a continuous cycle of adaptation and survival. He reflects on the evolutionary "arms race" between bees and wax moths, where each has developed unique strategies to outmaneuver the other. This episode provides a thought-provoking look at the natural balance within bee colonies and offers a fresh perspective on how wax moths play a crucial role in testing the resilience of honey bee populations.
