Insects developed technology long before we did, so perhaps they can show us how to use it without damaging the planet.
Whether you live in an urban apartment or a rural homestead, your outdoor area is more than just a private space. It’s a thriving ecosystem.
Hoverflies have evolved to trick predators into thinking they have a sting in the tail – but the predators have fought back.
Two new studies have linked controversial pesticides neonicotinoides to wild bee and butterfly declines.
Tracking the flight of the bumblebee teaches us how they use plants – and how we can help them.
New research shows that street lighting changes the activity of moths, and is likely to disrupt nocturnal pollination.
Honey bees are in decline and the current method of keeping them can be disruptive to a colony. But new designs allow beekeepers to monitor a hive remotely, even sniff out disease and pests.
Elephant numbers are increasing in parts of sub-Saharan Africa. Their search for food is leading them into conflict with farmers living adjacent to game parks. Bees could prove to be the answer to the problem.
