Prøverne bliver så undersøgt af forskere for eksempelvis parasitter eller mider, men selv om forskningsresultater fra Storbritannien har bestyrket mistanken om, at de såkaldte neonicotider skader både bier og humlebier, bliver der ikke undersøgt for pesticider eller insekticider. Det oplyser seniorforsker Steen Lykke Nielsen fra Aarhus Universitet, der er ekspert i virus- og bakteriesygdomme i bier og deltager i projektet.
