221: INPERSON: How Fungi Are Being Used to Treat Dying Bees!
Molly Quade studies fungi at Washington State University that kill mites to help reduce the death of our honeybee population. We cover how bees are NOT native BUT we treat bees as livestock for our agriculture. She also helps out some of Paul Stamets research with Fungi Perfecti.
