Trapped honey bees reduce floral visitation on milkweed flowers

open access: yesEcology, Volume 107, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Trapped arthropods have been shown to benefit plants in several ways, but few studies have examined the potential costs of arthropod entanglement. Milkweeds (Asclepias spp.) have an unusual pollination system that requires relatively large packets of pollen (pollinia) to become attached to the appendages of insect pollinators and be pulled ...

A scientific note on in-hive positioning determines small hive beetle trap efficacy

open access: yes, 2022
The small hive beetle (SHB), Aethina tumida, a parasite of honey bees is endemic to Sub-Saharan Africa and has become a global invasive pest. Adequate surveillance methods based on trapping methods need testing and verification of their efficacy.

Insecticides alter wild and managed pollination dynamics on oil crop yield

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Our results show that combining honey bee hives with insecticide use does not automatically enhance crop yield. Pollination outcomes are strongly scale‐ and context‐dependent, with wild pollinators providing disproportionately important services. Agricultural management should therefore prioritize integrated strategies that reduce pesticide pressure ...

The Joy of Pests: Camaraderie, Wonder and Dialectical Autonomy in UK Professional Pest Management

open access: yesTransactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 51, Issue 2, June 2026.
Short Abstract Using interviews and participant observation, this research explores the everyday practices and experiences of UK‐based pest management professionals. It reveals an unexpected and unalienated ‘joy of pests’ anchored in problem‐solving variety, camaraderie and zoological curiosity.

Deformed wings of small hive beetle independent of virus infections and mites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Insect wing deformities can be caused by viruses, mites and other environmental stressors during development. Here we conducted differential diagnostics of deformed wings in small hive beetles, Aethina tumida (SHB).

Year‐round pollinator visitation of ornamental plants in Mediterranean urban parks

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 702-715, May 2026.
Pollinators visiting ornamental plants in urban parks remained diverse throughout the year. They were represented by wild bees (42%), honeybees (37%), flies (18%), butterflies (2%) and beetles (1%). Both native and non‐native plants attracted pollinators.
