Title: Does Colony Collapse Disorder affect African "killer" bees?

Well, does it? How about bumblebees? Sherlock Holmes retired to raise bees on the souiith downs. Lets send him an ounce of shag  and see what he can come up with.

I don't think there have been any reports of this.

Colony collapse is no yet understood, there could be a number of reasons for it. Perhaps if a single reason can be isolated, the spread of killer bees could be controlled.
