Longevity of microwave-treated (2. 45 GHz continuous wave) honey bees in observation hives
Journal Article

· Environ. Entomol.; (United States)
Adult honey bees were exposed for 30 min to 2.45 GHz of continuous wave microwave radiation at power densities ranging from 3 to 50 mW/cm/sup 2/. After exposure, bees were returned to glass-walled observation hives, and their longevity was compared with that of control bees. No significant differences were found between microwave- and sham-treated bees at any of the power densities tested.
